**************************************************************************** ** I would like to thank everyone who has supported ARISS since the first contact back 15 years ago. I can still remember ARISS contact #1 where I was the control operator at Burbank outside of Chicago. It has been a blast ever since.
Now we are heading into 2016 where we hope to keep the traditions going. We have 2 contacts scheduled in the first week of the new year.

**************************************************************************** **
From 2015-12-20 to 2016-01-04, there will be no US Operational Segment
(USOS) hams on board ISS. So any schools contacts during this period will be conducted by the ARISS Russia team.
**************************************************************************** ARISS is always glad to receive listener reports for the above contacts. ARISS thanks everyone in advance for their assistance. Feel free to send your reports to [email protected] or [email protected].
**************************************************************************** Several of you have sent me emails asking about the RAC ARISS website and not being able to get in. That has now been changed to http://www.ariss.org/
Note that there are links to other ARISS websites from this site.
