Hi,

I had a nice voice QSO with the ESA Astronaut Luca Parmitano tonigh during
a pass over Portugal, and thank him to share with us his experience.

I have talk to 11 astronauts before, in more than 30 voice QSO?s, why I
still came nervous over few QSO?s? :)
Can sound funny but it?s my pleasure to share with you this moment:

Hi Glenn, AA5PK and All on the List

Just to remind that the effect flyby was discovered  more than
20 year ago by Prof. Giuseppe Colombo (SK) astrophisic at
the University of Padova in Italy and NASA consulting scientist.

Look please for him on Google

It is my understanding the first use of gravitational assist going
from one planet onto another was on the MVM-73 (MA-10) Mission to
Venus and Mercury.

I was involved in part of the MA-10 mission during Venus encounter
when atmospheric density was measured by transmitting two different
signals, one on 2-GHz and the other on 8-GHz.  Comparison of
difference in LOS times as the spacecraft passed behind Venus as
viewed from earth measured the differential in bending of the signal
thru the atmosphere.  It was again measured by AOS times when the
spacecraft re-emerged minutes later.  Tracking stations in Australia
participated.

As one of the two Rx operators at DSS-14 at Goldstone during Venus
encounter, it was quite an experience to be directly involved in the
experiment.  That was spring of 1974 (which is 39-years ago).  MA-10
went on to Mercury to obtain the first close observation of that (up
to that time mysterious) planet.

I do not argue who was the discoverer of the effect.

Shiekh Muzapher went on board ISS.? We made 5 direct contacts when, some 80
school children to talked to him and asked questions.? Since then it has
become highly sought after yearly event which is tied up with the Prime
Minister's Space Challenge Trophy.? This year 2013 we would be making our
8th yearly contact. Since the schools do not have ground stations, they make
use of Satellite Ground Station at National Planetarium established in 1995
under the call sign of 9M2RPN. The schools are the nurseries to produce
future astronauts and space scientists.? The forthcoming contact in October,
2013 provides the hands on experience and the seeding operation for
tomorrow's space scientists.
