Students used amateur radio to speak to Tim Peake Credit City of Norwich
School

An amateur radio contact between students at the City of Norwich School
GB2CNS and UK astronaut Tim Peake GB1SS took place at 14:40 GMT on Friday,
February 26, 2016.

Radio amateur Tim Hare M6HTJ, a Year 10 pupil at CNS, led the space linkup.
The pupils asked a range of questions from ‘what happens to the blood if
you cut yourself in space’ to ‘what’s your favourite place to fly over’ to
‘what sort of experiments are you doing in space’? The 10 minute live link
up was made possible by the Amateur Radio on the International Space
Station (ARISS) team.

Daniel Cussen EI9FHB asked John Brier KG4AKV to edit the videos he and Jean
Pierre F6DZP had received from the 2395 MHz ISS HamTV transmitter. This was
added to the video recorded at the City of Norwich school. The audio from
HamTV is used not just the VHF audio.

STM students designing antenna to receive data from STMSat-1 Credit STM

A Slow Scan TV (SSTV) CubeSat developed by students at Saint Thomas More
Cathedral School (STM) in Arlington, VA, is set to be deployed from the
International Space Station on March 7 between 8-11am EST.

STM is thought to be the first Elementary school to build their own
satellite, even Pre-Kindergarten, Kindergarten, and First Grade students
were involved in the project.

The satellite, a 1U CubeSat called STMSat-1, will transmit a SSTV signal on
437.800 MHz.

Middle School Students took the initiative to begin exploring how to
receive data from the CubeSat and formed a Ham Radio Club. There, they
learned the basics of operating a ham radio station and explored Slow Scan
Television as an option for receiving images once the satellite is deployed.

How Did 400 Grade School Students Built A Nano-Satellite?
