All:

I've noticed APRS transmissions sent from Falconsat on each pass and
today one showed up as WX PFS3-11 as a weather station. I'm assuming
this is an anomaly?

An International Space Station school contact has been planned with
participants at TX-801st Air Force JROTC at Burleson High, Burleson, Texas

on 13 Nov. The event is scheduled to begin at approximately 14:50 UTC. It is
recommended that you start listening approximately 10 minutes before this
time.The duration of the contact is approximately 9 minutes and 30 seconds.
The contact will be a telebridge between NA1SS and W6SRJ. The contact should
be audible over the west coast of the U.S. Interested parties are invited to
listen in on the 145.80 MHz downlink. The contact is expected to be
conducted in English.





The Burleson Independent School district educates almost 12,000 students,
the majority between the ages of four and nineteen.  67% of the student
population is White, 22% is Hispanic, and 6% is African American.  The final
5% is a wide mix of ethnicities.  37% of the district's student population
participates in the federal Free/Reduced Lunch program.  The predominant
native languages are English and Spanish, but 25 other native languages are
represented within the student population.



The district's vision is for every learner to graduate with 21st Century
problem solving and reasoning skills so that they are ready to embrace their
dynamic future in a global society.  The AFJROTC objectives include ensuring
every cadet develops: an appreciation of the basic elements and requirements
for national security; respect for and an understanding of the need for
constituted authority in a democratic society; patriotism and an
understanding of their personal obligation to contribute to national
security; habits of orderliness and precision; a high degree of personal
honor, self-reliance, and leadership; a broad-based knowledge of the
aerospace age and fundamental aerospace doctrine, basic military skills; a
knowledge of and an appreciation for the traditions of the Air Force; and an
interest in completing high school and pursuing higher educational goals or
skills.









Participants will ask as many of the following questions as time allows:



1. Do any medications you take in space affect the body differently in space

   than they would on Earth?

2. Research shows that spending so much time in space has some damaging

   effects to the body. Could you please describe how any effects have

   impacted you?

3. If you could safely visit another planet, which would it be and why?

4. Being in the International Space Station and having experienced different

   situations, How has that changed the way you see Earth and space?

5. What obstacles did you have to overcome when you first arrived to space?

6. From your experiences on the ISS, would you live on Mars if possible?

7. Would you return to space in the event of colonizing another planet? Why

   or why not?

8. What is the impact of losing your sense of smell when in space and how

   long does it take to come back when you return to Earth?

9. Is there anything that can be done from space to minimize the impact of

   deadly weather events, if so what?

10. I understand that mental exercises are a big part of the candidate

    selection process to become an astronaut, but is there any way that one

    can really be prepared for that kind of extended isolation? Were you?

11. Did you ever dream of being an astronaut when you were young? If so, is

    it what you dreamed it would be?

12. In regards to space trash, how much will burn up in the atmosphere and

    how much poses a danger to the planet?

13. I know that you use Electrolysis of water to create oxygen in the space

    shuttle, but what would happen if you ran out of water?  Is there a

    alternate way to create oxygen?

14. What kinds of tasks has the Robonaut 2 accomplished in its tests on the

    ISS?

15. Do you prefer to live in a gravitated environment or do you prefer

    weightlessness?

16. What do you think is the most advanced modification to the ISS?

17. What are you hoping to accomplish from 3D printing things in space?

18. Can you provide an example of an experiment in space that has made a

    major contribution to mankind?

19. Do you think the collaboration on the construction of the ISS from

    contributing countries affected the relationships between them?

Tony,

on the 20:07z pass today, I also got a weird packet.  Mine was from PFS3-1,
however - and it looked to be more like a just a decode error where my
D710G just happened to "make sense" of the erroneous decode.   A lot of the
pack info had weird symbols that I can only describe as resembling what it
looks like to open a binary file in windows notepad.

Since PFS3-11 is the PBBS, I'd guess that whatever set of characters
that shows a packet to be a WX station packet is present and the APRS
software is interpreting it as a WX station.

 San Giovanni Rotondo, Italy on 14 Nov. The event is scheduled to begin at
approximately 10:15 UTC. It is recommended that you start listening

Carmelita Manara, Milano, Italy



The "Carmelita Manara" School owns to bigger comprehensive institute
Morosini- Savoia.

Here is a very rich social contest, different cultures that can be found in
the school itself.

The school is in a green zone and is quite near to the center. The children
and teenagers and their needs are what we care for most. What we would like
to do is:

-develop their curiosity and their interests for subjects;

-help them transfer what they know from one field to another;

-develop their commitments, their sense of responsibility and their
self-confidence;

-teach them how to cooperate accepting different points of view;

-make them aware school is a place where they can be they are and where they
will be listened to.

The first commitment of the school is to give students a friendly
environment and to help them to overcame difficulties and enhance their
capacities and individual skills. Our institute organizes supporting
activity and courses. There are two coucellors in order to help guys, if
needed, to stay better at school. We have a new fully equipped gym, a
library with also a book crossing station, a recently restructured science
laboratory, an auditorium in which we can do many activities as the tare,
choir and conventions to form teacher and parents. We also have a
vegetable-botanic garden where we teach our student rhythms of year and we
take care of the important contact with earth. It is a very important
didactic activity. In the garden is also possible to organize observation of
sky by using telescopes (12-14).



I.C. "Pascoli Forgione", San Giovanni Rotondo, Italy

Istituto Comprensivo "Pascoli Forgione" was born in the school year
2009/2010 as part of a sizing operation that created new Comprehensive
Schools, aggregating schools of different orders of the same municipal
territory. It is situated in San Giovanni Rotondo, a Southern Italian town
in the province of Foggia and it is used to work in a context which is
typical of small towns.

The Institute that includes about 800 students from the Kindergarten, and
the Primary School to the Low Secondary school pursues the aim of a better
and more consistent training process aimed to children from 3 to 13. Our
students belong to different social, cultural and economic backgrounds.

On the pedagogical level, the Istituto Comprensivo "Pascoli Forgione", for
its structures, carries out the didactic educational continuity between the
three types of schools. Teachers have the possibility to know and follow the
educational process from the entrance of the Kindergarten up to the final
examination of middle school; they exchange important information on the
characteristics of learning and the evaluation of pupils.

They have also experienced forms of collaboration among the three grade
levels, with constitution of "open teams" and the launching of integrated
projects with particular reference to Physical Education, Music Education,
Maths and Science and Foreign Languages. In fact the school is a Trinity
Centre for language assessment, a Sports Centre in collaboration with the
different Sports Societies of the province, we collaborate with Kangourou
for English Competition, with Bocconi University for Maths competitions and
with the ANISN (National Association of Natural Science Teachers) for
Science Competitions.

Moreover for its various projects and involvement Istituto Comprensivo
"Pascoli Forgione" can be classified as a "school of the territory", because
it interacts intensively with local authorities, associations, families,
volunteers and cultural institutions.







Participants will ask as many of the following questions as time allows:



Proposed questions generated by the Carmelita Manara and I.C. "Pascoli
Forgione" students:



1. Ci piacerebbe vedere tue foto dei poli terrestri, ma la ISS non prevede

   orbite polari: perche'?

2. Quale episodio della tua vita ti ha spinto a diventare astronauta? Sei

   contento della scelta o ti aspettavi di piu'?

3. Abbiamo visto che avete gustato insalata spaziale, pensi sia possibile

   arrivare a coltivazioni utili al sostentamento?

4. Nelle tue missioni spaziali ti e' mai capitato di assistere ad una

About ARISS:

Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) is a cooperative
venture of international amateur radio societies and the space agencies that
support the International Space Station (ISS). In the United States,
sponsors are the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation (AMSAT), the American
Radio Relay League (ARRL), the Center for the Advancement of Science in
Space (CASIS) and  National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). 
The primary goal of ARISS is to promote exploration of science, technology,
engineering, and mathematics (STEM) topics by organizing scheduled contacts
via amateur radio between crew members aboard the ISS and students in
classrooms or informal education venues.  With the help of experienced
amateur radio volunteers, ISS crews speak directly with large audiences in a
variety of public forums.  Before and during these radio contacts, students,
teachers, parents, and communities learn about space, space technologies,
and amateur radio.  For more informa
 tion, see www.ariss.org, www.amsat.org, and www.arrl.org.



Thank you & 73,

David - AA4KN
