Ham radio and space missions make a great combo for some unusual DX. This one sounds interesting!

So they are purposefully adding to the "junk in orbit" problem?

I'm in, tuning my HT and police scanners to 145.990 Mc. I do remember hearing ISS and MIR traffic before that, usually on 143.625 Mc.

Listen for Orbiting Space Suit

Bad move.
This is a signal to lots of rational people that we've done about all we
can in manned earth orbit and it's time to end the program.
In other words, if there's no Buck Rogers in this program, no need to
spend any more bucks on it.
