US Hams, did you miss the proposal window for October 17 to December 15,
2014?
The next call for proposals to host an ARISS contact is coming up in
February, 2015.
Call for Proposals
Proposal Window February 15 – April 15, 2015
The Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) Program is
seeking formal and informal education institutions and organizations,
individually or working together, to host an Amateur Radio contact with
a
crew
member on board the ISS. ARISS anticipates that the contact would be held
between January 1, 2016 and June 30, 2016. Crew scheduling and ISS orbits
will
determine the exact contact dates. To maximize these radio contact
opportunities, ARISS is looking for organizations that will draw large
numbers of participants and integrate the contact into a well-developed
education plan.
The deadline to submit a proposal is April 15, 2015.
The Opportunity
Crew members aboard the International Space Station will participate in
scheduled Amateur Radio contacts. These radio contacts are approximately
10
minutes in length and allow students and educators to interact with the
astronauts through a question-and-answer session.
An ARISS contact is a voice-only communication opportunity via Amateur
Radio between astronauts and cosmonauts aboard the space station and
classrooms and communities. ARISS contacts afford education audiences the
opportunity to learn firsthand from astronauts what it is like to live and
work in space and to learn about space research conducted on the ISS.
Students also
will have an opportunity to learn about satellite communication, wireless
technology, and radio science. Because of the nature of human spaceflight
and
the complexity of scheduling activities aboard the ISS, organizations
must
demonstrate flexibility to accommodate changes in contact dates and
times.
Amateur Radio organizations around the world, NASA, and space agencies in
Russia, Canada, Japan and Europe sponsor this educational opportunity by
providing the equipment and operational support to enable direct
communication between crew on the ISS and students around the world via
Amateur Radio.
In the US, the program is managed by AMSAT (Radio Amateur Satellite
Corporation) and ARRL (American Radio Relay League) in partnership with
NASA.
More Information
Interested parties can find more information about the program at
www.ariss.org and www.arrl.org/ARISS. More details on expectations,
audience,
proposal guidelines and proposal form, and dates and times of Information
Sessions are available at www.arrl.org/hosting-an-ariss-contact. Please
direct
any questions to ariss at arrl.org.
