Snow or sun, our Science on Wheels Team is ready to roll 🥶 They’re in Payson, AZ today braving the snow, but that just guarantees the science is even cooler 😉❄️

An X-flare Goodbye: Region 3234 fires an X2-flare on as it rotates out of view. An R3 #RadioBlackout is in progress. Amateur radio operators on Earth's dayside, expect issues over the next hour (colored regions in map). A #solarstorm has launched but it is not Earth-directed.

SPITTING FIRE: The new region on the northeast limb (now numbered AR3186) is extremely active, shooting out jets almost continuously and there is a filament eruption in the background too! Note how small out Earth is in comparison.

The Science Center attended @AZSuperBowl's 100 Yards of Education: A STEM Playbook for Youth, presented by @FM_FCX, @AZSuperBowl and @EdForwardAZ 🏈🔬 1,000+ Arizona students rushed @StateFarmStdm to learn about the importance of STEM education from @LarryFitzgerald! @SuperBowl

I had a great trip to Arizona where I operated as KE8RJU/7 DM43. I also visited the @W7ASC_ARC during the trip. On December 29 I will be operating as K8Y for December YOTA Month from EN62. I will be on the Satellites and HF throughout the UTC day. I hope to contact you!

When Isabella Payne heads back to elementary school in September, she’s going to have the best “what I did in my vacation” story to tell.

We had an out-of-this-world experience today—thanks to @NASA_Astronauts Kjell Lindgren 👨‍🚀 At 1:00 p.m. today, he made surprise contact with our Harkins Ham Shack radio from the @Space_Station! Over a dozen families witnessed and participated in the 15-minute radio contact 📡

How do you communicate with #Mars during #solar conjunction? @NASA is looking at repeaters on station at Lagrange points. A fancy version of a drone? Check out this neat drone repeater closer to #MotherEarth. https://t.co/DJZYimI7zA

Class dismissed! Ten future #amateurradio operators from one family just left. Three generations. Ten HTs programmed and tested (Under control of Steve WB4ZSC) Next step - licensure before they take the air themselves.

Look out #satellites! W7ASC @azsciencecenter is returning to the air with refurbished satellite antenna and graciously donated equipment from Amateur Radio Council of Arizona and CSN Technologies. Thanks, guys! No more Keystone Cops antics to chase the birds.
