The King's School ARISS contact was a great success. Students asked
ISS Cmdr. Mike Foale 12 questions which he graciously answered.
Initial reports indicate the event was covered by the BBC.
People in the United Kingdom were able to catch the ISS downlink live,
while elsewhere people could watch the contact via streaming video.
Audio of the event may be available soon at the ARISS website
http://www.rac.ca/ariss where you can also find further information
on the ARISS programme.
Thank you to Cmdr. Foale and the ARISS team for giving the students an
outstanding event of a life time.
There will also be another ARISS event on Wednesday, February 4 with
James Bay Elementary school in Houston, Texas at 1755 UTC. Keep an
ear on 145.80 MHz for the ISS downlink.
[ANS thanks Scott, N3ASA for the above information.]
