ARISS News Release No. 25-19 ARISS Contact is Scheduled with Students at
Magnet Innovation Center, Inlet Beach, Florida, USA
April 15, 2025—Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) has received schedule confirmation for an ARISS radio contact between an astronaut aboard the International Space Station (ISS) and students at the Magnet Innovation Center, located in Inlet Beach, FL. ARISS conducts 60-100 of these special amateur radio contacts each year between students around the globe and crew members with ham radio licenses aboard the ISS.
The Magnet Innovation Center is the newest public high school in Walton County School District and provides a STEAM program of study in the fields of biomedical science, computer science, digital design, engineering, fine arts through theatre, and game design. For the last year, students have had the opportunity to research space exploration in preparation for this ARISS contact. Students in the school’s Wireless Technology Club are involved in amateur radio, building and installing ham radio equipment and pursuing their own amateur radio licenses. The entire school will be in attendance for this contact, while the local elementary and middle schools will be watching via livestream.
This will be a telebridge Contact via Amateur Radio allowing students to ask their questions of astronaut Nichole Ayers, amateur radio call sign KJ5GWI. The downlink frequency for this contact is 145.800 MHz and may be heard by listeners that are within the ISS-footprint that also encompasses the telebridge station.
The ARISS amateur radio ground station (telebridge station) for this contact is in Hollis, New Hampshire, U.S. The amateur radio volunteer team at the ground station will use the callsign AB1OC, to establish and maintain the ISS connection.
The ARISS radio contact is scheduled for April 17, 2025 at 10:52 am CDT (Inlet Beach) (15:52 UTC, 11:52 am EDT, 9:52 am MDT, 8:52 am PDT).
