Tim Peake launches to the ISS – an historic event!
The RSGB was delighted to be part of the launch events in London, Cardiff and Belfast
We were able to explain more about amateur radio to school pupils and the public, and to share in the excitement of this special day.
The RSGB joined ARISS at the Science Museum in London
Tim will contact pupils by amateur radio from the ISS
The first four school contacts have been confirmed.
We’re supporting those schools and their local clubs in their plans for an inspiring range of activity days leading up to the actual contacts.
