I have heard that rumor, but it is Fake News. AMSAT still enjoys a strong relationship with ARISS. ARISS-USA was formed as a separate nonprofit to provide them with more fundraising and grant opportunities.
Frank Bauer is still AMSAT's VP of Human Space Flight.

Recently, there was mention of AMSAT no longer being welcome in the ISS program. Is that true? Or do I need more coffee this morning?
