All of our qualified club members have been given a loan of a club Baofeng that they are encouraged to use and one activity is listening to the International Space Station. We couldn't miss another ARISS - Amateur Radio on the International Space Station contact today with Joshua Kutryk as he spoke to Ecole International PACA de Manosque in France this morning.

Space is hard!

We're really excited that this is still going ahead but moved to Thursday. We're really grateful to ARISS - Amateur Radio on the International Space Station and NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration who have done so much to ensure the contact still goes ahead.

The interest from everyone in school, in the community and in the country for this historic contact has been huge and we really can't wait to share it with you all on Thursday. We're in no doubt it will be worth the wait to hear from Joshua Kutryk

Please share to let everyone know the change in day and time.

Contact change for the UK.
