I hope you can tune in tomorrow (Thursday, December 7, 2023) to an ARISS webinar that ARISS’s Frank Bauer, KA3HDO, is hosting with Richard Garriott, W5KWQ.

Richard will talk about his dad Owen Garriott, W5LFL (SK), and his STS-9 NASA mission 40 years ago that resulted in the first ham radio contact from space—the first time an astronaut could talk to someone from space besides NASA and heads of countries.

The webinar tomorrow is at 1 pm Eastern, and here’s the URL: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxm5Ca2y0HD_NxXlZWXv11A
