I almost forgot that Halloween night is pretty big for pirate radio stations, I did some listening before bed and caught the sign off of a station on 6950khz sending a SSTV signal at 02:55UTC.

Fram2Ham: SSTV Image Handling The Fram2Ham SSTV transmissions are part of a STEM contest. Here’s how to handle your images: Do: Upload captures to ariss-usa.org/ARISS_SSTV ASAP. They’ll stay private until the mission ends. Don’t: Post to social media until we give the all-clear. The image includes a "FRAM2" logo with five figures in white suits, a snowy landscape with a puzzle overlay, and an ARISS/ISS logo, set against a grid background.
Expect Fram2Ham SSTV transmissions to start later today, so be ready to monitor your passes.
Please remember you’re listening in on a STEM contest for students.
Share your images to the ARISS image gallery, but please don’t share them on social media until after the event!

It's a small victory but I just got the last confirmed contact I needed for the Worked All States CW award!
I started learning morse code almost 2 years ago and never thought I would hit this milestone, but it's such a fun mode.

A slightly grainy Slow Scan TV Picture received from the International Space Station. The image is captioned "2024 Highights: ARISS - Japan" and pictures an artist rendition of a Japanese lunar lander.
Most of the good ISS passes have been very late at night for me, but I was able to catch this image in the morning. These SSTV events have been a great benchmark on what I need to improve with my antenna system for future satellite attempts. #hamradio
NASA's Parker Solar Probe will make history during a flight around the Sun on Christmas Eve.
"No human-made object has ever passed this close to a star, so Parker will truly be returning data from uncharted territory."

Kevin Bunch wrote a great article for @gamehistoryorg.bsky.social about discovering a completed but never-released Tarzan game for the Atari 2600. The article is amazing, and when you get to the end... you get to play it at Internet Archive!

Two very photogenic eruptions of plasma from the eastern edge of the Sun this morning! Neither are Earth-directed.

Red Sprites and Andromeda over Missouri lining up perfectly with a lone tree.
Chaos in our atmosphere paired with cosmic chaos.
Nature is awesome.
