ARISS

ARISS ( Amateur Radio operator one the International Space Station ) is a project financed by various organizations and carried out by the astronauts and the cosmonauts of the International space station (ISS) having also a license of Radioamateur. The program was previously called SAREX ( Space Amateur Radio operator Experiment ). Kenwood Electronics recently launched a publicity campaign profiting owing to the fact that their receiving transmitter amateur TM-D700A was currently in service on the ISS.

Radio hams and education

The radio hams also work with the awakening of the young people in the area of the technology. Certain groups of radio hams come to animate workshops in the classes or the children carry out small electronic assemblies. They also allow, and it east can be with dimensions the most spectacular, to carry out contacts between the pupils and the astronauts of the International space station ISS. These contacts are carried out within the framework of project ARISS. The questions put to the astronauts are prepared by the children and the teachers. At the time of the contact, from one 10 minutes duration, the radio hams return in radio contact with the astronaut on board, read the questions and the children can then hear the answers.

In a general way the practice of the radioamateurism can be the base of a technical solid formation and thus represents a chance to be able to approach with dimensions one “practices” of a theoretical knowledge.
