Pancake Day today! We woke up to the sweet smell of Marie making breakfast. Before eating, we cleaned up the upper hab and put away the mattresses we had laid out on the floor for yesterday’s movie night. The first EVA crew Joanna, Antoine, and Matthias began their decompression while Zahraa deep-cleaned the hab. This outing was at Compass Rock and allowed Antoine to start his research on the differences between astronauts’ perception of the terrain and drone perception. Marie was CapCom this time and made sure the team stayed safe during the EVA. Matthias also checked the headset from Comms Kit #2. The EVA team made it back by 11 a.m., debriefed, and then enjoyed lunch all together.
Later, Antoine went out again with Matías and Marie to Campus Rock, as he needed to continue gathering data from the crew’s perception of the terrain. They left at 2 p.m. During this time, Joanna ensured communication between the station and the EVA team. Matthias took care of the GreenHab and even managed to harvest some tomatoes and fennel. During the EVA, we had an issue with the front door, which blew open due to strong winds. The EVA crew had to return to secure it and ensure everyone’s safety before heading back out to continue their mission through the wind and the dust. Once they returned, we held a crew meeting to check in on everyone’s experiments and progress.
Matthias was in charge of dinner: chicken curry with rice while Joanna taught Antoine some dance moves. Tonight’s plan is to finish the film we started last night: Night at the Museum.
