Log Book for April 8, 2007
Commander's Check-In
Chip Shepherd Reporting
Crew Physical Status: Excellent overall. Minor cuts only.
Brief Narrative of Field Mission Results: SUNY students departed early this morning. Performed maintenance around Hab and GreenHab. Testing Hab's battery charge duration. Nischom and Sandy Silverman came by and completed a list of tasks in the GreenHab.
Time Departed/Returned from EVA: None.
EVA Narrative/Data/Interpretations: None. Preparing for tomorrow's EVA.
Plans for Tomorrow: Conduct EVA related to simulated ATV breakdown.
Report Transmission Schedule: Expect reports between on-time before 9 pm.
Maintenance: Installed a pump in the GreenHab to bring grey water from underground tank into GreenHab. Hopefully, we won't have to drag the big black hose into the GreenHab every day. Nischom and Sandy Silverman completed a list of tasks in the GreenHab, including inventory, pictures, dead plant removal, pest control. Cleaned the ShopVac filter.
Food/Essential Supplies Inventory: Very good. Ran out of medium size trash bags, but we have plenty of the bigger ones.
Miscellaneous: The Easter Bunny visited us overnight, leaving us hollow chocolate bunnies and Belgium chocolate eggs. We had a few visitors this morning, but the weather today has brought intermittent rain and we haven't seen anyone this afternoon.
Support Requested: Request a water re-supply on or before Wednesday, please. Not urgent, but do not have enough in the two exterior tanks to get through the remainder of the rotation without implementing severe conservation measures. Feel free to send us some more visitors. We like 'em!
