Upcoming ARISS Contact Schedule as of 2015-05-26 02:30 UTC
Quick list of scheduled contacts and events:
On behalf of the ARISS-International team, it is with great sadness that (***) we announce the passing of long-time ARISS team member Nick Lance, KC5KBO, SK. Nick passed away on May 24 from an aneurism of the aorta. Nick was a smart, caring, considerate and helpful person that loved the amateur radio hobby. As the primary amateur radio license trainer for the ISS astronauts, Nick played an integral role in encouraging and training countless astronauts (US, Canada, Japan and Europe) to pursue their amateur radio license and become active on ARISS. He inspired and trained dozens of NASA's aerospace education specialists (who talk to schoolteachers nationwide) to get their ham tickets. He also taught a "Hamster" course to middle schoolers, inspiring them to pursue careers in technology through Amateur Radio and ARISS activities. Personally, I enjoyed working with Nick both as a NASA engineer and an amateur radio operator. I will miss his quick wit and sense of humor. Nick will be deeply missed by many. Our deepest sympathy goes out to all that knew Nick, especially Renee, his wife, and all his family members. Frank H. Bauer, KA3HDO ARISS International Chairman
