Not explained good- I intended a file with a trascription of the answers, (not a file with registration) Micol

Hi all, I am the ARISS Op who keeps track of everything, posts the first public domain info, and who maintains the private ARISS stuff. So I have just about everything I think people are looking for. except for the crew replies. For those, one would need to get a copy of the video or audio that was recorded by the school. Some of us ARISS mentors get a copy from the school, sometimes we don't. For some schools, they are barely able to have a contact, so it is debatable if they also have recording equipment. I have zero time (I average 2 to 3 hours every day maintaining all of the ARISS stuff) to crank out a list of the questions asked but if someone wants to look at what the schools were going to ask, then I can provide that. Now that I retired for the second time, maybe I will have time to get back on HF or the satellites. I don't even remember when I was on HF last. I am willing to zip file what are really the files that I post to AMSAT-BB (which makes them in the public domain) and put to DropBox or email them directly; they are my working copies that have a date and time stamp as part of the file name. Someone could go into each file and retrieve the questions that were to be asked. As has been stated by someone, not all get answered. And often times there are a few extra questions that get asked on the fly which would not be in my lists. Fortunately, we do eventually get the questions from Russia but often times that is after the fact, so they may not be in the announcements. My rough math on the number is somewhere close to 26000 ARISS questions.

Umesh, I like your idea. Assuming you are referring to questions asked during ARISS contacts. I would estimate that over 20,000 questions have been asked over the years and this doesn’t include SAREX contacts. Questions could possibly be reproduced in that questions are written out and submitted in advance of the contact. Remember though, not all questions are answered by end of contact. I believe ARISS Ops maintain an historical archive of the documentation of each contact including questions (not sure about Russian contacts). The downside is that the same is not true about the answers. The answers are off the cuff by the astronauts. So unless one could get a recording of the contacts or a transcript that may have been reported, it would be difficult to reconstruct the full conversations over the years. Where as most contacts have been recorded in some form there is not a central repository for them. Many recordings would have been done by the school or individuals associated with the contacts. Gathering these would be a rather daunting task. I have always wanted to parse through the information to discover the most asked questions, or class the questions into categories. For example I have noticed there are many what’s it like or how’s it different to live in space questions. Many ask questions about the astronauts contingency if things go wrong. What do you miss most about earth or home. Another is how do you prepare or what classes should I take or what path should I take to become an astronaut. I also am curious about similar questions asked different astronauts that receive conflicting answers (or an astronaut conflicting him/herself during different contacts.) 73, EMike EMike McCardel, AA8EM Rotating Editor AMSAT News Service Sent from my iPhone > On Jul 4, 2018, at 12:01 AM, "k6vug@sbcglobal.net" k6vug@sbcglobal.net wrote: > > > Thank you Ted, this is a great question since we all have one time or another wondered how things are from up there ! > > On a side note, I have been wondering about
