I am very much delighted to say that H.A.L. Scouts Group Amateur radio
Club (VU2LKO) Lucknow is deeply devoted to explore Amateur Radio activity among
students and other interested people in state. We are licensed Radio
Amateurs (Generally known as HAM), when all means of communication fail Ham
Radio works. It is widely used in disaster mitigation to provide
emergency communication.
NASA and other space agencies including Canada,
Russia, the European Partners, and Japan
&
other international partners like AMSAT, ARRL, RAC etc.
have started an unique programme known as ARISS to fulfill Science, Technology,
Engineering, and Math (STEM) goals for students education.
ARISS (Amateur Radio on International Space Station) offers
an opportunity for students to experience the excitement of Amateur Radio by
talking directly with crew members onboard the International Space Station.
Teachers, parents and communities see, first hand, how Amateur Radio and crew
members on ISS can energize youngsters' interest in science, technology and
learning.
Over 1000 live school contacts have been made since 2003 in
the world. In India, 8
Schools/ Institutions only had participated in this programme till date.
We are organising the ARISS school
contact programme in two Schools at Lucknow as per revised schedule given below:
1. H.A.L. School Lucknow between 09th – 13th
May 2016
2. CMS Rajajipuram II Lucknow between 22nd - 28th Aug 2016.
Exact
schedule for both schools will be informed later.
