The journey to space was real as St Peter-In-Thanet CE Primary School connected with a LIVE uplink to astronaut Jasmin Moghbeli aboard the International Space Station (NA1SS) using Ham Radio. I sat down with Matt M0MLK and daughter Isabella to discuss how the contact went, questions asked and advice on how other schools can get involved.
These HAM-Radio event, to talk to Jasmin Moghbeli at the ISS, Isabella will never forget. Isabella, well done that you rocked the prepared direct contact with Ms. Moghbeli at the ISS by yourself. ufb and 73
This is the coolest thing I have ever seen. God Bless all the people that work in the background to make this happen. These children will remember this for their entire lives!
absolutely superb. What a great production and lovely interaction with a busy astronaut. Very glad they find time to inspire and teach through the hobby of amateur radio.
The problem is, that these informations are in a BBC and a QRZ bubble. Many people who could be intrested in that too, will not recognize this action. The closed HAM-Radio world got difficulties with that.
