Tyler,

1. Yes.
2. July 12th EVA.
3. See 1 & 2 above.

Sorry, couldn't resist, though I should have.

The earlier deployment was scrubbed in favor of an ad hoc test, with
deployment scheduled for an EVA in July.  The reasons/logic for all this are
somewhat convoluted and was covered in a detailed ANS release.  As of now,
and depending on what is decided about the recent test, it should go in
July.

Subject: [amsat-bb] ARISSat-1 Basic questions

After watching seven THOUSAND emails go by, stating that they had not heard 
the ARISSat-1 bird, I have a few questions:

1)  Is the ARISSat-1 still contained within the ISS?

2)  If it is, when is it supposed to be launched from the ISS?

3)  If it is no longer within the ISS, is it functional?   (can I start 
listening)

Thanks,

Tyler
