NASA Voyager Status Update on Voyager 1 Location
The full version of this story with accompanying images is at:
http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/news.php?release=2013-107&cid=release_2013-107
"The Voyager team is aware of reports today that NASA's Voyager 1 has left
the solar system," said Edward Stone, Voyager project scientist based at
the California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, Calif. "It is the
consensus of the Voyager science team that Voyager 1 has not yet left the
solar system or reached interstellar space. In December 2012, the Voyager
science team reported that Voyager 1 is within a new region called 'the
magnetic highway' where energetic particles changed dramatically. A change
in the direction of the magnetic field is the last critical indicator of
reaching interstellar space and that change of direction has not yet been
observed."

Hello AMSAT friends:
Some of you that know me, know I have moved to Virginia Tech. I am in my
second school year here, working harder than I ever have, and loving it.
I've started a company with friends Joe Mitola (revered by many as the
father of Software Radio and Cognitive Radio), Charles Clancy (director of
my center where I am director of research), Jeff Reed (Wireless @ VT) and
we are working on products to help wireless communications systems perform
better (4G -> 5G). Virginia Tech encourages this kind of spinoff and has
built growing set of tools to help.... It does help to actually be here to
get the win!
So I am announcing my center is growing very rapidly. We are looking for
engineers, scientists, mathematicians, computer scientists, and project
managers to help our rapidly expanding research portfolio. Please take a
look at the listings:
http://www.hume.ictas.vt.edu/vacancies
I am just about to take control of a 3U Cubesat from the USG government
agency, NRO. It is a colony 1 bus. It will look like a Colony 1 when
launched, but the insides will undergo transformation. As some of you may
have seen, we have signed an MOU with AMSAT to do joint work and when this
arrives, we will discuss doing this joint work.
We are exploring other, sooner projects now and hope we are successful in
find ways to work together... I have a great team of budding spacecraft
building participants and an active member in Space@xxx
http://www.space.vt.edu/
and the AMSAT announcement (which we used for our announcement for
cooperation with Space@xxx
http://www.southgatearc.org/news/february2013/amsat_and_virginia_tech_sign_col
laboration_agreement.htm#.UUxKAFtAQlb
In Space @ VT we are working on a 1U and a 6U for a NASA Elana and hope to
use the Colony for our 3U opportunity with students here and at the USNA.
It is very exciting to be involved in all of this..
I'm also a member of the Wireless Center here; Wireless @ VT and we run a
conference here at the end of the school year:
http://www.wireless.vt.edu/symposium/2013/
This year we are delighted to announcement that all my rowdy friends are
coming over tonight....
GnuRadio Hackfest will be hosted by the Hume Center (my center) immediately
following the Wireless Symposium.

Eugene UX0FY advises that he has not received logs for
UT1FG/MM after November 2012. He hopes to have the
December 2012 thru March 2013 logs in a few weeks.
Then he will be answering all QSL requests that he
has received so far. He asks everyone to be patient.
