The event challenges operators to achieve the greatest possible distances using amateur satellites in Earth orbit. Unlike traditional contests, scoring is based on the sum of each participant’s ten longest satellite QSOs rather than the total number of contacts. This format emphasizes technical skill, station optimization, and operating strategy. The results shown in the table reflect the combined distance of those ten longest contacts for each operator. The 2026 competition drew participants from multiple countries across three operating categories.<o:p></o:p> Category 1, designed for portable handheld stations using whip or telescopic antennas, had a single participant, DF2ET, who achieved a total distance of 8,920.65 kilometers (5,542.43 miles). The operator recorded a maximum single contact of 1,843.41 kilometers (1,145.19 miles) between grid JO31 and KN56. In Category 2, which includes portable and more capable stations, KE9AJ placed first with a total distance of 71,581.90 kilometers (44,472.62 miles), followed by VU3YFD and VA3VGR. The longest single contact in this category measured 7,480.98 kilometers (4,648.52 miles) between KE9AJ in EL99 and F4AZF in JN39 via AO-7. KE9AJ also recorded the highest average distance at 7,158 kilometers (4,447.30 miles). Category 2 drew ten participants from seven countries.<o:p></o:p> <table class="MsoNormalTable" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="850"

Liftoff occurred at 11:09 PM EDT Wednesday, April 22 (0309 UTC Thursday, April 23) from Rocket Lab’s Launch Complex 1 in New Zealand. The mission carried a diverse set of small satellites designed to test new technologies and expand capabilities in low Earth orbit. The launch continues Rocket Lab’s steady cadence of dedicated smallsat missions.<o:p></o:p> The Electron rocket deployed all eight spacecraft into low Earth orbit at an altitude of approximately 336 miles (540 kilometers). Deployment occurred less than one hour after liftoff, in line with mission expectations. Rocket Lab confirmed successful separation of all payloads shortly after the event. The mission marked the 79th launch of the Electron launch vehicle.<o:p></o:p> Kakushin Rising represents the second of two contracted launches for JAXA’s technology demonstration program. The first mission, RAISE and Shine, launched in December 2025 and carried the RAISE-4 satellite to orbit. Together, the missions highlight Japan’s continued investment in rapid, cost-effective access to space for experimental payloads. These efforts support the development of new satellite technologies and operational concepts.<o:p></o:p> <img border="0" width="1024" height="768" style="width:10.6666in;height:8.0in" id="_x0000_i1046" src="https://www.amsat.org/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/RocketLab_Electron_Kakushin_Rising-1024x768.jpg"><o:p></o:p> Electron rocket undergoes propellant loading ahead of the Kakushin Rising mission for JAXA in New Zealand. [Credit: <a href="https://x.com/RocketLab">Rocket Lab</a>]<o:p></o:p> The eight satellites on this mission include MAGNARO-II, KOSEN-2R, WASEDA-SAT-ZERO-II, FSI-SAT2, OrigamiSat-2, ARICA-2, Mono-Nikko, and PRELUDE. The payloads range from educational CubeSats to advanced technology demonstrators, including systems for remote sensing, communications, and deployable structures. One satellite features an antenna that can expand to many times its stowed size using origami-inspired techniques. These missions provide valuable on-orbit validation for emerging technologies.<o:p></o:p> Several of the satellites are IARU-coordinated, including MAGNARO-II, KOSEN-2R, WASEDA-SAT-ZERO-II, and ARICA-2, with amateur radio downlinks in the VHF and UHF bands. Early reports from the SatNOGS network indicate that multiple satellites are already transmitting, with CW beacon signals received from MAGNARO-II, ARICA-2, WASEDA-SAT-ZERO-II, FSI-SAT2, and OrigamiSat-2 within hours of launch. These initial receptions confirm successful early operations and provide immediate opportunities for amateur radio operators to monitor and decode signals.<o:p></o:p> Rocket Lab’s Electron rocket, a 59 foot tall (18 meters) launch vehicle, is designed to provide responsive and dedicated access to space for small payloads. The company continues to support commercial, government, and research missions with frequent launches.

The rocket performed nominally during ascent but failed to place its payload, AST SpaceMobile’s BlueBird 7 satellite, into the intended orbit. The spacecraft had been scheduled to deploy about 75 minutes after liftoff into a 286 miles (460 kilometers) circular orbit at a 49.4 degree inclination following a second upper stage burn. The FAA classified the event as a “mishap” and has opened an investigation to determine the root cause and ensure public safety before allowing a return to flight. According to available telemetry, the payload reached only about a 95 miles (153 kilometers) orbit instead of the planned altitude, rendering it unsustainable. Despite the anomaly, Blue Origin successfully landed and recovered the booster for the first time, supporting future reusability and higher launch cadence. (ANS thanks <a href="https://www.engadget.com/">Engadget.com</a> for the above information)<o:p></o:p> + NASA engineers at Jet Propulsion Laboratory commanded Voyager 1 to shut down its Low-Energy Charged Particles experiment on April 17 in an effort to conserve dwindling power and extend the spacecraft’s mission. The instrument had operated nearly continuously since launch in 1977, providing valuable measurements of ions, electrons, and cosmic rays in interstellar space beyond the heliosphere. Powered by a radioisotope thermoelectric generator that loses about 4 watts per year, Voyager 1 now faces critically low power margins after nearly five decades in operation. A recent drop in power during a routine maneuver raised concern that the spacecraft’s fault protection system could automatically shut down additional systems, prompting the team to act preemptively. Two science instruments remain active, continuing to return unique data from a region of space no other spacecraft has reached. Engineers expect the shutdown to provide about a year of additional operation as they prepare further power-saving measures, including a planned system reconfiguration later this year. (ANS thanks <a href="https://www.nasa.gov/">NASA</a> for the above information)<o:p></o:p> + SpaceX has completed a full-duration static fire test of its next-generation Starship Version 3 upper stage ahead of the vehicle’s first flight. The test, conducted on April 14, involved firing the engines while the rocket remained secured to the launch pad, demonstrating readiness for upcoming operations. Starship Flight 12, targeted for early to mid-May, will be the first launch of the larger and more powerful Version 3 configuration. When fully stacked, the vehicle stands about 408 feet (124.4 meters) tall and features upgraded Raptor engines capable of delivering significantly greater performance. The new variant is designed to carry more than 100 tons to low Earth orbit, a substantial increase over the approximately 35-ton capacity of the previous Version 2. NASA is now preparing for its Artemis 3 mission, which will test docking operations in Earth orbit between the Orion spacecraft and one or both contracted lunar landers, including Starship and Blue Origin’s Blue Moon. (ANS thanks <a href="https://www.space.com/">Space.com</a> for the above information)<o:p></o:p> <div class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"> <hr size="2" width="100%" align="center"> </div> <h2>Join AMSAT today at <a href="https://launch.amsat.org/">https://launch.amsat.org/</a><o:p></o:p></h2> In addition to regular membership, AMSAT offers membership to:<o:p></o:p> <ul type="disc"> <li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3"> Societies (a recognized group, clubs or organization).<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3"> Students enrolled in at least half-time status are eligible for free membership to age 25.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3"> Memberships are available for annual and lifetime terms.<o:p></o:p></li></ul> Contact info [at] <a href="http://amsat.org"> amsat.org</a> for additional membership information.<o:p></o:p> 73 and remember to help Keep Amateur Radio in Space!<o:p></o:p> This week's ANS Editor,<o:p></o:p> Mitch Ahrenstorff, ADÃHJ mahrenstorff [at] <a href="http://amsat.org"> amsat.org</a><o:p></o:p> ANS is a service of AMSAT, the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation, 712 H Street NE, Suite 1653, Washington, DC 20002 AMSAT is a registered trademark of the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> </div> </div> </div>
