*FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE*
*ARISS Contact is Scheduled with Students at *
*Collège Roger Martin du Gard, Belleme, France*
September 22, 2026â€öAmateur 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
Collège Roger Martin du Gard located in Belleme, France. 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.
Roger Martin du Gard Middle School is a rural school located in the Perche
region of Orne, France, with approximately 250 students. Itâ€Ös Aeronautical
Initiation Certificate (Brevet d'Initiation Aeronautique - BIA) STEM
program introduces students to the fields of aeronautics and space. Also
participating in the ARISS contact is Thomas Pesquet Primary School, a
rural school located in the heart of the Perche region. It has 109
students, from preschool to 5th grade. These two schools have been
collaborating for several years on projects that have included a
micro-rocket competition held every two years and stratospheric balloon
launches.
This will be a direct contact via Amateur Radio allowing students to ask
their questions of astronaut Sophie Adenot, amateur radio call sign KJ5LTN.
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 relay
ground station.
The amateur radio ground station for this contact is in Belleme, FR.
Amateur radio operators using call sign F6KCO, will operate the ground
station to establish and maintain the ISS connection.
The ARISS radio contact is scheduled for September 23, 2026 at 15:38 pm
CEST (Belleme, FR) (13:38 UTC, 09:38 am EDT, 08:38 am CDT, 07:38 am MDT,
06:38 am PDT).

*About ARISS:*
Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) is a cooperative
venture of international amateur radio societies and the space agencies
that support the ISS. In the United States, sponsors are the American Radio
Relay League (ARRL), Amateur Radio Digital Communications (ARDC), Radio
Amateur Satellite Corporation (AMSAT), NASAâ€Ös Space Communications and
Navigation program (SCaN) and the ISS National Labâ€öSpace Station Explorers.
The primary goal of ARISS is to promote exploration of science, technology,
engineering, the arts, and mathematics topics. ARISS does this by
organizing scheduled contacts via amateur radio between crew members aboard
the ISS and students. Before and during these radio contacts, students,
educators, parents, and communities take part in hands-on learning
activities tied to space, space technologies, and amateur radio. For more
