Wednesday 8 January, ARISS contact planned with school in Ostrow Wielkopolski, Poland
An
International Space Station school contact has been planned Wednesday 8
January with participants at Zespoł Szkoł Technicznych, Ostrow
Wielkopolski, Poland. The event is scheduled to begin at
approximately10:44 UTC, which is 11:44 CEWT.
The contact will be a direct between OR4ISS and SP3POW. The contact is expected to be conducted in English.
The contact will probably be broadcast on the livestream video server at http://ariss.pzk.org.pl/live
School Information:
The
Centre of Technical Schools in Ostrow Wielkopolski is a school which
educates future electronics and mechatronics engineers, computer
scientists and renewable energy specialists.
Our school has been
cooperating with Polish universities, electronic and mechatronic
industrial plants and schools in Germany and the UK, what brings very
good results. Thanks to the participation in the ARISS program our
school has partnered with the Space Research Centre of the Polish
Academy of Sciences in Warsaw.
Our students participate in
various forms of extra-curricular activities which develop their
passions and interests. As a result, they have created many interesting
electronic and mechatronic devices. For example, some of the recent
constructions include fpv plane, a quadrocopter, a stratospheric balloon
capsule, some amateur radio equipment and many more.
Currently, the school has 800 students aged 16 - 19 years.
The
Center of Technical Schools has invited its younger mates (students 13 -
15 years old) from Junior High School No. 1 named of Polish Nobel
laureates in Ostrow Wielkopolski and 10 - 12 year-old students from Pope
John Paul II Primary School in Lamki so that they all can participate
in the ARISS program.
Preparations for the ARISS contact began in
late 2011. A series of amateur radio classes were carried out so that
students could learn the rules of work on the radio. It was a very
interesting experience to carry out radio communications through amateur
radio satellites and to take photos from NOAA satellites. In addition,
we monitored other radio signals from space. Most emotions were from the
radio contact with the ISS in the APRS system and from listening to
ARISS contacts of other schools in Poland and Europe.
The schools
participating in the ARISS program organized a series of events to
promote various fields of science, particularly those that are the most
relevant for the development of astronautics.
Participants will ask as many of the following questions as time allows:
1. Kasia (14): What scientific experiments are carried out on the space station at present?
2. Michal (12): How does the magnetic needle work in space?
3. Julia (12): How do you handle different illnesses?
4. Piotr (15): How would a pendulum clock work on board of the ISS?
5. Magda (13): Was there anything that surprised or impressed you during your stay in space?
6. Oskar (15): What was the largest mammal (except for humans) which was on the ISS?
7. Patrycja (13): How do flying insects behave in zero gravity?
8. Blazej (16): Do you know how many centimeters your body lengthened in weightlessness?
9. Szymon (14): Is it easy to use a pen or a fountain pen on the space station?
10.Oliwia (16): Do you think that time in space passes faster?
11. Damian (18): How do you observe and explore the Moon?
12. Jakub (15): What or how did you feel when you saw the Earth from space for the first time?
13. Tomasz (15): Does Kirobo work well and fulfill its mission on the ISS?
14. Jakub (16): Is it hard to get used to weightlessness?
15. Arek (19): Is it possible to be able to breed crystals in weightlessness?
ARISS
is an international educational outreach program partnering the
participating space agencies, NASA, Russian Space Agency, ESA, CNES,
JAXA, and CSA, with the AMSAT and IARU organizations from participating
countries.
ARISS offers an opportunity for students to experience
the excitement of Amateur Radio by talking directly with crewmembers
onboard 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.

Wednesday 8 January 2014, ARISS contact planned with school in San Giovanni Valdarno, Italy
An International Space Station school contact has been planned Wednesday 8 January with participants at Tecnico Industriale Galileo Ferraris, San Giovanni Valdarno, Italy. The event is scheduled to begin at approximately12:21 UTC, which is 13:21 CEWT.
The contact will be a direct between IR0ISS and IQ5GX. The contact is expected to be conducted in English.
The contact will probably be broadcast on the livestream video server at https://www.livestream.com/amsat_italia
School Information:
The Technical Institute Galileo Ferraris is active on the territory of the Arno Valley since 1979 and has trained over the years the engineers of the many industrial enterprises in the area. The technical institute in fact offers a solid general education and training of scientific and technical basis necessary for both a rapid entry into the world of work and the professions and for the continuation of studies at university . In particular, enables the student to face the entrance test for the various scientific disciplines . Its strength lies in teaching laboratory accompanied by a solid theoretical and scientific.
Branches of study offered the institute is currently divided into the following specializations:
• Electronics and electrical engineering.
• Chemistry, Materials and Biotechnology
• Data processing and telecommunications
The time is for all specializations of 32 hours per week , spread over four days per week of five hours (from 8.10 am to 13.10) and two days a week for six hours (from 8.10 am to 14.10 ).
The school is equipped with several laboratories and a large gym. Among these , for the two years , we have the laboratories of Physics, Chemistry , Drawing- CAD , Computer Science , for the three years, Chemistry, Electronics, Electrical Engineering , Computer Science, Mathematics , Technology Design and Planning , Automatic Systems , Information systems.
In addition, the active school every year internships at companies in the area and technical projects in cooperation with such companies.
Participants will ask as many of the following questions as time allows:
1. What should I do if I wanted to become an astronaut? I mean what educational path should I follow, which degree would be the best to take, in your opinion?
2. Do you have particular memories you would like to share with us?
3. Why is it important going to the outer space? Is it more important to spend money on space missions than on other fields?

5. How long does it take you to regain all your physical ability when you come back to Earth?
6. What types of experiments are you currently running? Which are the most useful for mankind?
7. What do you do when you get sick in space? Do you need a doctor on board the ISS?
8. Have you ever been scared to fly in space?
9. How long are the missions?
10. What is the strangest question you have been asked by students?
11. Do you believe that someday man will discover other planets that support life?
12. How often do micro- meteoroids collide with your space shuttle? How difficult is to avoid them?
13. Will it be possible for astronauts to land on other planets in the future?
14. How is the International Space Station able to keep in contact with the Mission Control Center?
15. What type of antennas do you use for it?
16. What kind of operating system do you use in the space station?
17. What are your daily tasks in the space station and how do you spend your free time?
18. What kind of training do you need to become an astronaut?
19. How long did it take you to reach your destination orbit?
