Join Anacapa School for a chat
with NASA Astronaut Chris Cassidy
as he orbits the Earth aboard
the International Space Station!
You are invited to attend a special space-to-Earth radio contact with
NASA Astronaut Chris Cassidy
on Wednesday, May 22, 2013 at 10:00 a.m - 11:00 a.m.
at QAD, Inc. 100 Innovation Place • Santa Barbara 93108 (map)
*** Please RSVP by emailing space@anacapaschool.org. ***
Cassidy is a flight engineer on Expedition 35, the 35th and current long-duration mission to the International Space Station (ISS) and Cassidy’s second spaceflight. Anacapa students will have an opportunity to ask questions of Cassidy during the 10-minute live forum as the space station’s orbit passes over Southern California.
The arrangement is made possible by Anacapa School’s participation in the Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) Teaching From Space program, a cooperative venture between NASA, the American Radio Relay League (ARRL), the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation (AMSAT) and other international space agencies that coordinates scheduled radio contacts between astronauts aboard the ISS and schools.
