Event Description:  For the tenth consecutive year our club organizes in the Swiss Air Force Museum in Payerne, Canton Vaud (Switzerland) the „Payerne Space Day" as part of the WSW. This year it’s the turn of the primary school of Fétigny, located in the west of Payerne. The “Payerne World Space Week Program” started in August after the summer vacations in accordance with the school program, and ends with the “Payerne Space Day” on October 8, 13:30 - 17:00. Approximately 50 pupils out of three primary classes will deal with space issues. The main objective is to interest this young people in technology and science in general. They will bring closer the space to the museum visitors with the following topics they are about to prepare in groups: The „Hubble“ Space Telescope, Spacelab / MIR / ISS, Satellites in general, Astrolabe. As always, one of the highlights of our “Payerne World Space Week Program 2016” will be the attendance of Swiss Astronaut and Club Member Claude Nicollier and the debriefing, which he will held afterwards with the children. Another, always highly appreciated highlight will be an amateur radio short wave contact with our call HB9SPACE between the schoolchildren and radio amateur Jacky, 3B8CF in Mauritius. For this, the children will prepare some questions about space, which are addressed to “OM” Jacky to be answered by him competently.
