Klem South School in Webster, New York had a very successful contact
with
Ed Lu on board the ISS. The contact was handled by Nancy Rocheleau WH6PN
via
the ARISS telebridge system. Nancy was up at 3:00 am her time in
Honolulu to
be the ground station. The contact time was May 27, 2003, at 13:01 UTC.
Ed (an alum of the school) was able to answer questions from 13 of the
planned
16 students.
When Bobby Semmler (grade 5) asked what zero gravity felt like, Ed
likened it
to going over the top on a roller coaster. Terese Caiazza (grade 2)
wondered
if he had any pets on board but Ed said unfortunately no. John Wiseman
(grade 4) inquired about meals on board, Ed said much of it was a
Russian
(which he liked) and that he got to bring some of his own favorites
(including
Oriental).
Congratulations to Ed on his first ARISS contact and Klem South!
[ANS thanks Charlie Sufana AJ9N, for the above information.]
