Anita,

I was not involved but was a spectator at an ARISS (Amateur Radio on the 
International Space Station) ham radio contact at the Ann Arbor Hands On 
Museum on December 27, 2008.  These events last 11 minutes, and 
typically take 3 years to set up.  They require experienced radio 
operators with a sophisticated skill set and specific equipment that 
most hams will not have (such as, automated satellite-tracking 
antennas.)  The people who did it here came up from Ohio and were just 
great.

Regards,

Ralph
