School students from Adelaide's northern suburbs have managed to speak to astronauts on the International Space Station (ISS) two weeks after their hearts sank when their call went unanswered.
Key points:
They managed to get through last night
Astronaut Shannon Walker said being in the ISS was like being with family
NASA said astronauts were unable to answer the previous call because "a series of false alarms sounded on board".
While it can usually take more than a year to organise a school call to the ISS, the return call only took a fortnight.
