He previously launched to the International Space Station as part of Expedition 44/45 on July 22, 2015. Kjell Norwood Lindgren is an American astronaut who was selected in June 2009 as a member of the NASA Astronaut Group 20. The International Space Station is the largest modular space station currently in low Earth orbit. Crew members aboard the International Space Station conducted scientific investigations during the week of August 1 that included controlling space station robots with code written by students, using a container-free system to examine formation of amyloid fibrils, and evaluating orbit-to-ground control systems for multiple robots. By the time I had gone to bed it felt like midnight was over!” I looked out the window where my daddy’s radio room is and it was very dark. “I had just been in bed for about 20 minutes and then daddy called for me. After we spoke on the radio, NASA asked for a picture of me which they sent to Astronaut Kjell and to my surprise, Kjell sent me back a picture of my picture on his iPad floating in the ISS! I was elated when I heard an astronaut on the International Space Station. Isabella said: “It was amazing to contact the ISS and it made my night and day. I’ve even (unofficially) worked stations on all continents! But this may be my favorite contact so far. I’ve had a lot of fun using the #ARISS amateur radio station #NA1SS on the to talk with ham radio operators all over the world. The family then received an email from NASA to ask if the recording and a picture of Isabella could be used on its website. The astronaut tweeted to say the chat with Isabella had been his favourite of the day. Matthew said: “Isabella had just gone to bed so I had to wake her up quickly and she had only been awake for about 30 seconds when she spoke to him.” Matthew and Isabella had to get the timing just right to catch the ISS as it was overhead. They have to do it as part of astronaut training as they have amateur radio equipment on the station.”Īlthough the equipment is not usually used to chat to the public Astronaut Kjell is an active radio user and has been using it to chat to people, something that has rarely happened over the past decade. She has been involved in a few radio events, Children On The Air events, and will hopefully go for her own licence soon. Because I have the full licence she can sit on my knee and use the radio to speak to people as long as I am controlling it. Matthew said: “Isabella has been a member of the radio club ever since she was born and has been playing with the radio since she was six. He and Isabella are both members of Hilderstone Radio Society. The youngster was with dad Matthew who is a license holding amateur radio enthusiast and tutor. Isabella Payne spoke to Astronaut Kjell Lindgren as the ISS flew overhead last week.
