With the recent news, I pray that people start paying attention to those who are sharing accurate information with the potential to impact lives. This is not meant to brag, but I’ve had numerous discussions with Sarah Adams, Scott Mann, and Legend on the Shawn Ryan Show to help inform the American public—and people abroad—about the growing threat of an enemy that is not being taken seriously. It’s heartbreaking that this information is becoming more real with each passing day. Please, if you would, kindly share this with those around you.
Episodes of the Shawn Ryan Show to pay attention to are:
#81
#107
#116
#135
#149

Here comes another SSTV event!
ARISS will conduct SSTV operations from the @Space_Station beginning Monday.
The theme is "40th Anniversary of Amateur Radio in Human Spaceflight. "
You'll have almost a week to catch all 12 images.
Watch ARISS social media for details.

Peering out a Dragon Endeavor window that frames red and green aurora streaming by Dragon Freedom docked to the front of the International Space Station.
When Crew-9 arrived I moved out of my crew quarters on the ISS to make room for @AstroHague. I now sleep in Dragon Endeavor while we wait to undock. We take most of our images from the cupola, but sleeping here has been amazing. This is the view out the window this evening . . . I miss my family and friends but we would have missed today’s insane aurora if we had undocked today. I watched the aurora with @astro_Pettit today from the cupola and on a later pass I watched it from Endeavor with @AstroHague.

World record! With this successful launch, there are now 19 people orbiting Earth. And to be clear, everybody has a ride home.

The planners have released the timing for the next #SSTV test from the ISS.
The digipeater will transmit SSTV images will be between Oct. 27 and Nov. 1. However, due to a spacewalk, it will be split into 2 windows. See the timing and more in the attached graphic below.

#OTD 12 years ago, the Space Shuttle Atlantis approaches the space station for docking for the last time on July 10, 2011. The final flight of the Space Shuttle program has us remembering many triumphs, fallen heroes, and signature moments. More: go.nasa.gov/44zYQjs

(UPDATED) TONIGHT'S AURORA FORECAST:
Based on current data, we've moved our possible Northern Lights viewing farther south. A moderate, strong, or severe geomagnetic storm is possible.
Aurora viewing is likely in the United States tonight as Earth is impacted by a strong solar storm. The most favorable cloud conditions look to be over the Midwest, Plains and parts of the Great Lakes and less favorable conditions in the Northeast and Northwest.
