A SpaceX rocket carrying radio amateur Rabea Rogge LB9NJ \/ KD3AID<\/strong><\/a> and 3 other astronauts launched from Pad 39A at the Kennedy Space Center on April 1 at 0146 GMT on the Fram2<\/strong><\/a> mission. It is the first polar-orbit human spaceflight mission to explore Earth.<\/p>\n Rabea will be transmitting amateur radio Robot 36 Slow Scan TV (SSTV) images on 437.550 MHz (+\/- 10 kHz Doppler shift) during the mission.<\/p>\n ARISS will provide special commemorative certificates for those who upload their Fram2 SSTV images to the ARISS SSTV Gallery<\/a><\/strong>. Certificates will be delivered after the completion of the Fram2 mission.<\/p>\n There are several challenges in receiving the images,\u00a0 the low transmit power, variations of antenna orientation, and a short, 3-day mission duration, with only a limited time assigned for the SSTV operation. Are you up for the challenge?
