I agree with Mark: This is great news! Thank you to all of the members of the team. The hardware and software components developed for ARISSat-1 should be good building blocks for future LEO/MEO/HEO opportunities. Lessons learned from this deployment will directly apply to longer duration flights.
I look forward to hearing the presentations at the AMSAT Symposium and reading more details in the AMSAT Journal. 73, Steve N9IP -- Steve Belter (s...@wintek.com) My Desk: 765-269-8521 > -----Original Message----- > From: amsat-bb-boun...@amsat.org [mailto:amsat-bb- > boun...@amsat.org] On Behalf Of Gould Smith > Sent: Sunday, September 26, 2010 12:28 AM > To: amsat-bb@amsat.org > Subject: [amsat-bb] ARISSat-1/RadioSkaf V ready to ship > > This was an important week for ARISSat program. > > The ARISSat-1/RadioSkaf V satellite passed the vibration tests this week. > Documents needed for the Phase 2 Safety Reveiw were sent to the > committee for the NASA Safety Review scheduled for Oct 12 & 13, 2010. > We are planning on crating the two satellites (flight and backup) next week > and shipping them to NASA Houston for shipment to Russia. > > Thank you to all the team members that have worked so diligently over the > life of the project and especially the last > few weeks to get the satellites flight ready and prepared to ship. > > Gould, WA4SXM > AMSAT ARISSat Project Manager > > _______________________________________________ > Sent via amsat...@amsat.org.
