Joe Acaba (NA1SS) unsuccessfully calling KE4ZXW Virginia Air & Space Center for a school contact on 26 June 2012 at 1821 UTC. I am uploading this for N5VHO, KE4ZXW and others who might be trying to figure out what happened during this failed scheduled contact. Note that NA1SS was transmitting APRS packets in addition to the voice transmissions, and these are included in the recording.

Good luck troubleshooters!

We just added a 12-minute video of all the students' questions - and the Bob Heil & Gordon West "Ham Nation" video podcast of May 1, 2012, features our project!

Dr. Don Pettit (NA1SS) speaks with students at Parkside Elementary School, Atlanta, GA, USA on 02 March 2012 at 1643 UTC via telebridge station K6DUE. Students asked some of the following questions:

1. I love learning about space! Did you have an interest in space when you were young?
2. How has your educational background and training prepared you to be aboard the ISS?
3. What prior preparations are needed before an astronaut is cleared to travel in space?
4. How did you feel the first time you launched into outer: space?

Had my first contact with the ISS and spoke to Andre, PI9ISS. The recording is only of him speaking, but although a first for me, I think Andre's said it was his first contact to The UK. Hope I get the QSL card to put as pride of place in my Shack
