Given the current shortage of launch opportunities it's good to see a new
launch vehicle being developed. The first flight of Super Strypi is planned
for late in 2013 with a swarm of 10 CubeSats.

As I think back on 2012, I find it hard to believe that the end of the
world has passed and the end of the year is so near (urgh, another end
of something). Especially when it is going to reach 74 degrees in
Houston today (75 degrees on Christmas Day) and we still have our air
conditioner running. We have to put our tree in the freezer just to get
some frost on it. What's up with that? Is Santa going to be wearing his
beach ware this year? Will the sled have pontoons?
AMSAT Awards are doing well although they were a bit shy this year
compared to other years. Hopefully in 2013, they will pick up as new
satellites are launched and new hams find their way to satellite
operations.
We closed down the old AMSAT online store and dusted off all the
products we had and opened a new AMSAT online store right down the
street from the old one at the corner of Electron and Byte. Now newer
and improved to serve you better.
73 and Happy Holidays...bruce
