World Space Week

In support of @WorldSpaceWeek, National Radio Centre volunteers delivered a series of exclusive talks for Bletchley Park visitors, exploring satellites, their different orbits and the vital role they play in modern communications.

Visitors enjoyed practical demonstrations showing how amateur radio operators use satellites for space communication, as well as how satellites, including the International Space Station, can be tracked and monitored using simple radio equipment or even a home computer with an internet connection.

Over three days, more than 150 people attended the talks, with many leaving inspired to continue exploring the world of space communications. Visitors were encouraged to tune in via the ARISS (Amateur Radio on the International Space Station) website and listen to astronauts making live radio contact with students at Wick High School in Scotland.

Rockets are the foundation of our journey into space. 🚀

Rockets carry the diverse missions that connect our world, expand our knowledge and inspire us to explore farther. At United Launch Alliance, we launch critical missions that shape our future — from national security and scientific discovery to global communications. As we celebrate #WSW2026, our goal is to inspire the next generation to dream bigger and explore farther.

From the first launch to reusable rockets, the way we reach space is changing.

As we mark World Space Week 2026, let’s look beyond the launch — and toward a future where access to space is more frequent, efficient and sustainable.
