ARISS Mission Viejo Post Contact Media

Thanks to the many of you who tuned in on Friday morning to listen to Mission Viejo's second attempt to contact the Commander Michael Lopez-Alegria on the International Space Station!

The direct connection to the station was established at 7:23 AM PST and lasted for seven full minutes before the station dropped behind our local Saddleback Mountains.

Since the event, we have updated the website to include new photos, an MP3 recording of the contact, video recordings straight from the contact room, and a link to the article written about it in the Orange County Register last Saturday. Please take some time to view this new media at:

Thank you all very much for your interest and support in this exciting event! We appreciate it very much.

Best regards,
