About ARISS:
Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) is a cooperative venture of international amateur radio societies and the space agencies that support the International Space Station (ISS). In the United States, sponsors are the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation (AMSAT), the American Radio Relay League (ARRL), the ISS National Lab and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The primary goal of ARISS is to promote exploration of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEAM) topics by organizing scheduled contacts via amateur radio between crew members aboard the ISS and students in classrooms or public forms. Before and during these radio contacts, students, educators, parents, and communities learn about space, space technologies, and amateur radio. For more information, see www.ariss.org.

*****************************************************************************
The ARISS (a joint effort of AMSAT, the ARRL, NASA, the ARISS international
partners including Canada, Russia, the European Partners, and Japan) operations
team wishes to announce the following very tentative schedule for ARISS school
contacts. This schedule is very fluid and may change at the last minute.
Remember that amateur radio use on the ISS is considered secondary. Please
check the various AMSAT and ARISS webpages for the latest announcements.
Changes from the last announcement are noted with (***).
Listen for the ISS on the downlink of 145.8Ø MHz unless otherwise noted.

To let you in on how tough it is to schedule contacts, here are some of the constraints the ARISS mentors must work under:
Each Increment is about 26 weeks in length.
For any given expedition, we typically may not schedule:
1. Anything the first 3 weeks.
2. During EVA weeks
3. At least 2 weeks prior to the Increment change.
4. No contacts during meal and exercise periods.
5. No contacts during post-sleep and pre sleep (before Ø8:ØØ UTC and after 19:3Ø UTC)
6. Contacts on the day of Progress docking or undocking are circumspect.
Mike Fincke KE5AIT and Gennady Padalka RN3DT produced a video during their stay on Expedition 9. You can get the QuickTime version (209MB) or the Windows Media version (152MB). These files are huge, so only a broadband connection is recommended. Thanks Mike and Gennady!

Currently the ARISS operations team has a list of 60 schools that we hope will be able to have a contact during 2020. As the schedule becomes more solidified, we will be letting everyone know. Current plans call for an average of one scheduled school contact per week.
