Welcome to the Michiana International Space Station Information Page.  This page is a new page which is built in a similar fashion to the old Michiana MIR page (1996-1998).

 
This page will provide people with access to info reguarding the ISS-but mainly will give Ham Operator/Scanner Information for ISS.
