ARISS was unable to schedule an afternoon tour because of another large
space conference in town that week.  The tour will be Monday morning, too
early for those of us on the boat.

Hello Mani,

Sathyabamasat included for tracking on

Hope could be received.

All,



Those who have expressed interest in the ARISS meeting previously have
received the latest ARISS meeting information.  I am including it here for
all on AMSAT-BB because there was a query about it here.



Since BB will not accept attachments, our "near final" draft for our ARISS
meeting in Houston can be downloaded at:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/7b156pcxxrjdjon/ARISS-I%20Agenda%202016%20Houston-
Rev%208.pdf?dl=0



As you review this, I think you can see that we have some really exciting
topics that we will be discussing and working through, as a team.  Most
importantly, we will be celebrating our 20th anniversary as a team.  For
those not aware, 20 years ago, in November 1996, an international group
interested in installing and operating a ham radio station on the ISS met at
the NASA Johnson Space Center in Houston and, per NASA's direction, formed
an international working group called ARISS.  And the rest is history!!

Because we have so many things to address at our ARISS-I meeting, we have
divided our discussions into 3 primary categories:  1) Hardware Development,
2) Education and 3) Sustainability and Funding.  As you can see in the
agenda, we will be conducting two sessions simultaneously like is done in a
conference. We will also have plenary sessions, where the entire team will
attend, to discuss topics that impact the entire, world-wide team.

If you are still interested in attending the meeting, you are welcome to
come.  Please let me know (directly) of your interest.

I thank you all for your interest in and support to our magnificent program.
It is amazing what we have accomplished in 20 years!  It will be exciting to
see what we will do in the next 20!!

  Thank you dear Pedro, for your kind information. We are tracking the Space
Craft and as we are going through the post launch performance reviews, we
are looking for the limited telemetry through the beacon for analysis.
Would appreciate if any audio recordings of the CW beacon are available
over different parts of the Globe.

For amateur radio topics/programs - what is your favorite site(s) for
Raspberry Pi 3
information?

I am also looking for some sort of self-running SENSE HAT demo that I can
hold up and
"WOW!" audiences as I explain that this is the exact same hardware that's
aboard the ISS

Many thanks.

Hi Mani,

Just had a nice overhead pass here in CM98, but nothing heard.  Listened
to both 145.980 +/- as requested, and also 145.890 which is where my
Gpredict satellite software seems to think the downlink should be (but
no idea how it "knows" this).

I used the Keps from Celestrak for the pass.

Hope all is well on the bird, and that the issue is on my end.

   Hello Mani, Greg and all,

   Nothing heard during the exactly overhead pass of orbit nr 1930 over
western Europe around 1000 UTC using fresh Space-Track tle and GPredict.

Many of you have probably seen the trailers for the upcoming six-part
series, MARS. Produced by Ron Howard and Brian Glazer, this TV event begins
airing in November. But Nat Geo has also released a short-film prequel to
the series, called ?Before Mars? in which amateur radio, and conversations
with astronauts on the ISS plays a major role.

Good film, and great fun for any ham interested in space communications.

While on the subject of Mars, CBC Radio One's program "Ideas" just
finished a 2-part documentary "Generation Mars".  The podcasts are
located at:

http://podcast.cbc.ca/mp3/podcasts/ideas_20161027_56887.mp3

The programs include conversations with experts such as Dr. Robert Zubrin.
