The Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) program will support slow-scan television (SSTV) transmissions worldwide in memory of cosmonauts Alexei Leonov, Valery Bykovsky and Sigmund Jähn.

This event is currently scheduled to begin tomorrow, Saturday, December 28, 2019 at 11:00 UTC and will end at 18:20 UTC on Wednesday, January 1, 2020 when the system is scheduled for shutdown. 

Note: sometimes changes may occur in the crew work schedule that could affect the SSTV transmission dates and times so it is recommended that you frequently check the ARISS Facebook and Twitter accounts for any updates before and throughout the event.

Transmissions will take place on 145.800 MHz and in the PD 120 format, using the call
sign RS0ISS.

The Polish ARISS Team has prepared an award for participants in the SSTV experiment.

Once received, images can be posted and viewed by the public at http://www.spaceflightsoftware.com/ARISS_SSTV/index.php and you can receive a special SSTV ARISS Award for posting your image.

More About ARISS

ARISS was created and is managed by an international working group, including several countries in Europe as well as Japan, Russia, Canada and the USA. The organization is run by volunteers from the national Amateur Radio organizations – including Radio Amateurs of Canada – and the international AMSAT (Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation) organizations from each country.

Since ARISS is international in scope, the team coordinates locally with their respective space agency and as an international team through ARISS working group meetings, teleconferences and webinars.
