Message to US Educators Amateur Radio on the International Space Station Contact Opportunity
Call for Proposals Proposal Window February 15 – April 15, 2017
The Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) Program is seeking formal and informal education institutions and organizations, individually or working together, to host an Amateur Radio contact with
a crew
member on board the ISS. ARISS anticipates that the contact would be
held
between January 1, 2018 and June 30, 2018. Crew scheduling and ISS
orbits will
determine the exact contact dates. To maximize these radio contact opportunities, ARISS is looking for organizations that will draw large
numbers of
participants and integrate the contact into a well-developed education plan.
The deadline to submit a proposal is April 15, 2017. Proposal
information
and documents can be found at www.arrl.org/hosting-an-ariss-contact.
The Opportunity Crew members aboard the International Space Station will participate in scheduled Amateur Radio contacts. These radio contacts are
approximately 10
minutes in length and allow students to interact with the astronauts
through
a question-and-answer session.
An ARISS contact is a voice-only communication opportunity via Amateur Radio between astronauts and cosmonauts aboard the space station and classrooms and communities. ARISS contacts afford education audiences
the
opportunity to learn firsthand from astronauts what it is like to live
and work in
space and to learn about space research conducted on the ISS. Students
also
will have an opportunity to learn about satellite communication,
wireless
technology, and radio science. Because of the nature of human
spaceflight and
the complexity of scheduling activities aboard the ISS, organizations
must
demonstrate flexibility to accommodate changes in dates and times of
the
radio contact.
Amateur Radio organizations around the world, NASA, and space agencies
in
Russia, Canada, Japan and Europe sponsor this educational opportunity
by
providing the equipment and operational support to enable direct communication between crew on the ISS and students around the world via
Amateur Radio.
In the US, the program is managed by AMSAT (Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation) and ARRL (American Radio Relay League) in partnership with
NASA and
CASIS (Center for the Advancement of Science in Space).
More Information Interested parties can find more information about the program at www.ariss.org and www.arrl.org/ARISS.
