Ham Radio Operators Dial In Explorer 1 Celebration
To celebrate the 50th anniversary of Explorer 1, the JPL Amateur Radio Club will be on the air from 8 a.m. PST on Monday Jan. 28, through 8 p.m. PST on Sunday Feb. 3. A commemorative Explorer 1 QSL card is available to those ham operators who make contact with the station.

JPL's Explorer 1 was the beginning of a half-century of unprecedented
exploration. JPL currently manages for NASA 19 spacecraft and six
instruments. Four spacecraft are exploring Mars, and that number will
increase by one when the Phoenix lander touches down near the Martian north pole on May 25. Other JPL missions and instruments are studying Earth and our oceans; making their way to a rendezvous with a comet; probing deep into the heart of the asteroid belt; exploring Saturn, its moons and rings; and peering into the distant universe to study stars, galaxies and planets beyond our sun. Caltech manages JPL for NASA.
