Hello, I'm writing to you from IT Security group at Marshall Space Flight Center just a few blocks away from the HOSC. Thank you for the work you do supporting the ISS science experiments on a 24/7/365 basis for the last 15 years!

What has been the most stressful experience you've had to overcome while manning your console?

NASA as an agency is ranked 1st place to work within the Federal Government. Within that, the Marshall Space Flight Center has consistently ranked at the top 10 for several years in a row! Everyone is super friendly and you get to meet lots of smart, cool people!

I don't know about video conferences from the ISS, but they do have a program called Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS). I think, the classroom needs to have radio equipment and the station needs to be in the area for the signal to be relayed.

Other than that, a group of volunteer employees (and contractors) make themselves available to do on-site and video conference presentations. Just this week, I was trained on how to present for the SLS program. You can request a speaker in the following URL:

Hope this helps. :)

If you can't find something directly with NASA, you could always look into the several contract companies that provide support services.
