The International Space Station is now under construction and is permanently manned by teams of astronauts, many of whom have amateur licenses.
Amateurs from the ISS partner countries, in the USA, Russia, Japan, Europe and Canada, have set up ARISS, a program to develop and put into operation the on-board amateur station . The initial station is now in operation, and astronauts are available for QSO's in their spare time (they are usually very busy!).
The following IARU societies and AMSAT organizations participate in ARISS
- USA: ARRL, AMSAT-NA
- Russia: SRR, AMSAT-RU
- Canada: RAC, AMSAT-NA
- Belgium: UBA, AMSAT-Belgium
- France: REF, AMSAT-Francophone
- Germany: DARC
- Italy: ARI, AMSAT-Italia
