Het uitgestelde schoolcontact met een combinatie van 3 Franse scholen staat nu voor vrijdag 5 mei om 11:58 op het ARISS programma.

Zolang Thomas Pesquet in ISS aanwezig is wordt dit contact dan ook in de Franse taal gehouden. Het grondstation is dit keer TM10ISS en de downlink van ISS is zoals altijd te beluisteren op 145,800 MHz in FM. (Denk wel aan de dopplershift.)

 

Hieronder volgt de presentatie van de 3 scholen en de vragen die door de kinderen gesteld gaan worden.

ARISS is an international educational outreach program partnering the volunteer support and leadership from AMSAT and IARU societies around the world with the ISS space agencies partners: NASA, Russian Space Agency, ESA, JAXA, and CSA.

ARISS offers an opportunity for students to experience the excitement of Amateur Radio by talking directly with crewmembers on board the International Space Station. Teachers, parents and communities see, first hand, how Amateur Radio and crewmembers on ISS can energize youngsters’ interest in science, technology, and learning.
