Good Morning,



Our launch provider has decided that we can release the preliminary
Keplerian elements for tomorrow morning's launch. These are preliminary, are
for the entire group in our deployer, and may not be very accurate,
especially after a few orbits. Please plan accordingly. As you can imagine,
things for me are a bit busy for the next few days with commissioning, so
please address any requests for help importing the elements or similar to
the list.

And imagine how much more powerful it will be as an AMSAT comms capability
when someone writes a WEB interface making the flying store-n-forward BBS
available on line.

We have dozens of ground stations all around the world, each collecting
downlink packets and feeding them into the global APRS-IS.  But the PBBS
packets are not APRS and not collected by the APRS-IS since they use a
different PID bit.

All we need is a separate internet server that collects all the PBBS
packets... and then makes them available on an on-line web page showing
the entire PBBS trffic.

What a great service for disaster and remote communications using Ham
radio.

See the idea:  http://aprs.org/PFS3.html

ARISS RELEASE UPDATE:  Nov. 14, 2017



Cygnus launch delay has slipped the Carmelita Manara in Milano, Italy AND
I.C. "Pascoli Forgione", San Giovanni Rotondo, Italy contact from Nov. 14 
to Nov. 15, 2017.

See Below for details:



An International Space Station school contact has been planned with
participants at Carmelita Manara, Milano, Italy and I.C. "Pascoli Forgione",
 San Giovanni Rotondo, Italy on 15 Nov. The event is scheduled to begin at
approximately 11:36 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 K6DUE. The contact should be audible over the eastern U.S.
and adjacent areas. Interested parties are invited to listen in on the
145.80 MHz downlink. The contact is expected to be conducted in Italian.





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:

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,

International  Space Station Astronauts are Calling CQ Students ?
ARISS-US program education  proposal deadline is November 15, 2017


September 18, 2017: The  Amateur Radio on the International Space
Station (ARISS) program is seeking  proposals from U.S. schools,
museums, science centers and community youth  organizations to host
radio contacts with an orbiting crew member aboard the  International
Space Station (ISS) between July 1 and December 31,  2018.

Each year, ARISS provides tens of thousands of students with  oppor-
tunities to learn about space technologies and space  communications
through the exploration of Amateur Radio. The program  provides
learning opportunities by connecting students to astronauts  aboard
the International Space Station (ISS) through a partnership  between
NASA, the American Radio Relay League, the Radio Amateur  Satellite
Corporation and other Amateur Radio organizations and  worldwide
space agencies. The program?s goal is to inspire students  worldwide,
to pursue interests and careers in science, technology,  engineering
and mathematics (STEM) through Amateur Radio.

Educators  overwhelmingly report that student participation in the
ARISS program  inspires an interest in STEM subjects and in STEM
careers. Ninety-two percent  of educators who have participated in
the program have indicated that ARISS  provided ideas for encourag-
ing student exploration, discussion, and  participation, and 78
percent said that ARISS was effective in stimulating  student
interest in STEM.

ARISS is looking for organizations that will  draw large numbers
of participants and integrate the contact into a  well-developed
education plan. Students can learn about satellite  communications,
wireless technology, science research conducted on the  space
station, what it is like to work in space, radio science, and  any
related STEM subject. Students learn to use Amateur Radio to  talk
directly to an astronaut and ask their STEM-related questions.
ARISS  will help educational organizations locate Amateur Radio
groups who can  assist with equipment for this once-in-a-lifetime
opportunity for  students.

The proposal deadline for 2018 contacts is November 15,  2017.

The ARISS website has additional details on expectations,  proposal
guidelines, and the proposal form.  See:
http://www.ariss.org/hosting-an-ariss-contact-in-the-us.html

Join AMSAT for a live blog of the RadFxSat (Fox-1B) launch beginning
at 09:15 UTC. The launch is scheduled for 09:47 UTC.

Note that due to the delay in the Orbital ATK Antares / Cygnus launch,
the main NASA TV channel will be covering the berthing of Cygnus to
the International Space Station. Coverage of the JPSS-1 launch will be
available on the NASA TV Media channel (NTV-3).
