Hi Alexander, KC2ZSX 

Have you never make a calculation or an estimation on how it costs a 10 
minutes of an astronaut activity all costs including on board of the ISS ? 

Why NASA should vaste money for how silly she is a FD weekend radio 
activity playing with us from the ISS ? 

The astronauts are already tired with the same questions infinitely repeated 
with the ISS contacts with the schools and NASA is a very serious space 
organization.
