US Hams, don’t forget that there is a new process for US school proposals.
For US schools to have an ARISS contact, they must fill out a proposal,
submit it to NASA, and see if they are approved or not. Once a school is
approved and put on the list, an ARISS mentor will be assigned to assist the
school.
NASA will have two open windows a year for schools to submit a proposal.
The window for contacts during the second half of 2012 has already closed.
Look for the window for first half 2013 contacts later this year. You
must go through NASA to get the proposal material. Contact Teaching From
Space, a NASA Education office, at JSC-TFS-ARISS(a)mail.nasa.gov or by calling
them at (281) 244-2320.
The following US states and entities have never had an ARISS contact:
Arkansas, Delaware, Kansas, North Dakota, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Vermont,
West Virginia, Wyoming, American Samoa, Guam, Northern Marianas Islands,
and the Virgin Islands. (***)

An International Space Station school contact has been planned with participants at Talcott Mountain Science Center & Academy, Avon, CT on 28 Feb. The event is scheduled to begin at approximately 15:53 UTC. The duration of the contact is approximately 9 minutes and 30 seconds. The contact will be direct between NA1SS and W1TMS. The contact should be audible over portions of the eastern U.S. Interested parties are invited to listen in on the 145.80 MHz downlink. The contact is expected to be conducted in English.
Talcott Mountain Science Center is one of Connecticut's premier informal science education institutions. The Center has been an initiator and catalyst in providing enrichment science education to students throughout the Northeast and a leader in teacher in-service education, including special programs for girls in science. TMSC is recognized for its innovations in gifted and talented programs, for its earth and space, alternative energy, atmospheric and environmental science activities for students, with ongoing science and technology in-service education for teachers as well as its one-of-a-kind k-8 model school for intellectually excited students, Talcott Mountain Academy for Mathematics, Science and Technology. Since 1985, Talcott Mountain Science Center has been nationally recognized as a pioneer in the development of interactive video programming in math and science education.
Participants will ask as many of the following questions as time allows:
1. How far do you travel each day? Can you describe what you see when you
look out your window?
2. Are asteroids a huge problem for people on earth or does the atmosphere
play a role in protecting us?
3. Are there any differences between space training and what really happens
in space?
4. What do I have to study to become an astronaut?
5. Do you think we are polluting space by our Space programs?
6. What activities do you do on the ISS for your job?
7. What are the more strange differences about living in space rather than
on Earth, that people wouldn't think of?
8. How do you wash your hands?
9. How long do you stay on the space station at one stretch?
10. What activities do you do the ISS in your free time?
11. Is it possible you could run out of air? And what would you do?
12. Does the food in space taste the same as food on Earth?
13. Does the Earth really look blue and green from space?
14. Can you see the Earth spinning from space?
15. How do Astronauts know when to sleep or be awake because in space isn't
it dark?
16. How do the Astronauts get enough oxygen to last for years?
17. How do you know if it is daytime or nighttime in space?
18. How big is the ISS?
19. How old is the ISS?

ARISS is an international educational outreach program partnering the participating space agencies, NASA, Russian Space Agency, ESA, CNES, JAXA, and CSA, with the AMSAT and IARU organizations from participating countries.
ARISS offers an opportunity for students to experience the excitement of Amateur Radio by talking directly with crewmembers on-board the International Space Station. Teachers, parents and communities see, first hand, how Amateur Radio and crewmembers on ISS can energize youngsters' interest in science, technology, and learning. Further information on the ARISS program is available on the website http://www.ariss.org/ (graciously hosted by the Radio Amateurs of Canada).

An International Space Station school contact has been planned with participants at 4th Dimotiko Scholeio Chaidariou, Chaidari, Greece on 28 Feb. The event is scheduled to begin at approximately 09:42 UTC. The duration of the contact is approximately 9 minutes and 30 seconds. The contact will be direct between OR4ISS and J41ISS. The contact should be audible over Greece and adjacent areas. Interested parties are invited to listen in on the 145.80 MHz downlink. The contact is expected to be conducted in English.
Our school is located in Chaidari, a suburb in the north-west of Athens. It was constructed in 1978, but it is now being renovated so as to be more energy efficient. It is a two-storey building with 16 classrooms, a Head office and a stuff room.
It serves 256 pupils, aged between 6 and 12 years old, from 1st Grade through 6th Grade. It is stuffed by a headmistress and 24 teachers, 12 of whom teach all subjects required in the curriculum (that is: Greek Language, Mathematics, Geography, History, Science, Religious Education) plus two Physical Education teachers, a Music lessons teacher, two English language teachers, a French language teacher, a German language teacher, a teacher of Art, a teacher for Theatre, an Information & Technology teacher and a teacher responsible for the afternoon zone study. There is also a teacher who helps those pupils with special educational problems. The official lessons are in the morning (Monday - Friday) start at 8:10a.m. and finish at 2:00p.m. All pupils attend morning lessons, but those pupils whose both parents work, stay on at school and they study and prepare their homework for the next day starting at 12:30 p.m. and finish at 4:15p.m.
Our school has constantly been taking part in various projects such as Environmental projects, Health projects, Music and Sports events and any activity that stimulates and advances the students mentally or physically. Our students have won a lot of prizes and awards, too.
Two years ago our school participated in "Comenius", a European program in collaboration with other European schools from France, Spain, Norway, Italy, etc. The project was "Parks and Gardens of our Cities" and all the students were very keen on working on it, producing excellent results.

2. How long can you travel nonstop?
3. What do you do in case of emergency?
4. How do you bathe and use the toilet?
5. How and where do you sleep?
6. Are long duration space flights lonely?

Will they ever help people?
11. Why did you become an astronaut?
12. How do you feel the moment you are taking off?
13. Why is so much money spent on space traveling?
14. Do you do physical exercises so as to keep fit? Do you follow a special
programme?
15. Will you ever travel outside our solar system?
16. Will spaceships or other vessels ever travel at the speed of light?
17. Have you detected any life existence there?
18. Is space travel dangerous?
19. Are stars dangerous?
20. Have you grown any plants in space?

US Hams, don’t forget that there is a new process for US school proposals.
For US schools to have an ARISS contact, they must fill out a proposal,
submit it to NASA, and see if they are approved or not. Once a school is
approved and put on the list, an ARISS mentor will be assigned to assist the
school.
NASA will have two open windows a year for schools to submit a proposal.
The window for contacts during the second half of 2012 has already closed.
Look for the window for first half 2013 contacts later this year. You
must go through NASA to get the proposal material. Contact Teaching From
Space, a NASA Education office, at JSC-TFS-ARISS(a)mail.nasa.gov or by calling
them at (281) 244-2320.
The following US states and entities have never had an ARISS contact:
Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, Kansas, North Dakota, Rhode Island, South
Dakota, Vermont, West Virginia, Wyoming, American Samoa, Guam, Northern
Marianas Islands, and the Virgin Islands.

One of the ARISS operation team mentors
An International Space Station school contact has been planned with participants at Soleado Elementary School, Ranchos Palos Verdes, CA on 25 Feb. The event is scheduled to begin at approximately 19:53 UTC. The duration of the contact is approximately 9 minutes and 30 seconds. The contact will be direct between NA1SS and KE6JPM. The contact should be audible over California and portions of the western U.S. Interested parties are invited to listen in on the 145.80 MHz downlink. The contact is expected to be conducted in English.
Soleado Elementary School's mission is to educate each and every one of its students to their fullest potential while cultivating a lifelong love of learning. Named for its beautiful location in the hills of Rancho Palos Verdes, our school is proud of its rich cultural background, academic achievement, and involvement in extra-curricular activities. Our mascot, a rosy-cheeked sun, is an exceptionally fitting characterization of our school, which wraps our students in the arms of a caring and supportive community that nurtures development of the whole child.
Founded in 1968, even Soleado's physical design embodies community and cooperation, with each core educational building housing five classrooms with one wall "open" to a shared "big room" in the center. The open classroom environment facilitates daily teacher collaboration and student interaction within and among grade levels, while "big rooms" allow for large group activities and foster a positive feeling of family among our students and staff. In addition to our strong sense of community and our open classroom model, another distinguishing characteristic of our school is its cultural and linguistic diversity. With 420 "Soleado Suns" this year in grades DK through 5, our student body encompasses families who come directly from 30 different countries speaking 21 languages.
Participants will ask as many of the following questions as time allows:
1. What are your goals as an astronaut in making the world a better place?
2. What are the biggest advancements you have seen with the space program,
since having landed on the ISS?
3. Who were your mentors and role models in becoming an astronaut?
4. How does seeing the Earth from space make you feel about the future of
our planet?
5. What do you hope people here on Earth will learn about what you're doing
on the ISS right now?
6. What do you see as the biggest benefit to mankind as a result of the
development of the ISS?
7. What is the most challenging work you have done on the ISS?
8. What benefits do you consider in working with people from other parts of
the world?
9. How do you cope with the sense of weightlessness which you experience?
10. What subjects in school did you need to know the most about to be an
astronaut?
11. What skills do you think are important for an astronaut to have, besides
being a good student?
12. How well and how long are you able to sleep without gravity, seeing the
sun rise and set so often?
13. What is the longest amount of time you could survive on the ISS without
returning to Earth?
14. Do you think average people will be able to travel and live at the ISS in
my lifetime?
15. When did you first realize you wanted to be an astronaut?
16. What do you miss most from Earth while on the ISS?
17. What is the strangest or most amazing thing you have seen while in space?
18. What is your biggest fear living on the ISS?
19. Are you able to "go green" and recycle or reuse things in space, as you
do on Earth? If so, what types of things do you do?
20. What has been the most surprising or exciting thing you have discovered
since arriving on the ISS?
21. How often do you get to communicate with your family while you are away?
22. Do you have more or less energy in space than you did on Earth?
23. How many people do you anticipate the ISS being able to support in the
future, as astronauts or as average Americans?
24. Does the ISS have bacteria in it? If so what is it, and how does it grow
in space?

ARISS is an international educational outreach program partnering the participating space agencies, NASA, Russian Space Agency, ESA, CNES, JAXA, and CSA, with the AMSAT and IARU organizations from participating countries.
ARISS offers an opportunity for students to experience the excitement of Amateur Radio by talking directly with crewmembers on-board the International Space Station. Teachers, parents and communities see, first hand, how Amateur Radio and crewmembers on ISS can energize youngsters' interest in science, technology, and learning. Further information on the ARISS program is available on the website http://www.ariss.org/ (graciously hosted by the Radio Amateurs of Canada).
Thank you & 73,
