The Frontiers of Flight museum in Dallas, Texas, Love Field, is again this July 22, having it’ annual “Moon Day” event on Saturday July 22^nd.  This is a large Space theamed STEM event held at the Museum for 15 years now.   Regularly attracting 1200-1500 people, from young children and families, to the young at heart.  Many organizations have tables, displays demos and presentations.  I have been representing Amateur Radio Satellites, and AMSAT for many years now.  We show off the types of satelites that AMSAT has/is developing, explain orbits/footprints, show off the cubesat simulator, and do live satellite pass demos.  We do present how Amateur Radio makes space accessible to the average person.  We are located right next to the Dallas Amateur Radio Club, who also is a regular participant.

There are a couple of other satellite enthusiasts who usually assist in manning the inside display table, but there is always the need for additional folks to work the table, explain concepts, and do satellite communications demos out on the parking lot.

If you live in the DFW area, are planning o be visiting, or just want to come and have a fun time explaining Amateur Radio in Space to a broader audience than just licensed hams, (We though routinely bump into lots of folks who have a license, but haven’t gotten going with the hobby), please get in contact with me off list and I will give more details.

Date;                     July 22^nd, 2023

Time;                     8AM setup.  10A-4P doors open

P.S.   If someone has a general public and space enthusiasts presentation on how satellites get to orbit, and stay there, if you can get with me ASAP, I may be able to get us a presentation slot.  Just thought of this idea.
