Nasim Kaveh



Aujourd’hui on a commencé une autre belle journée à huit heure du
matin. La journée était plutôt relax étant donnée la plupart des
problèmes majeurs sont presque réglés. Alors, nous avons avancé un peu.
plus sur nos travaux personnels et scientifiques jusqu'au déjeuner.
Anna a préparé un délicieux « brownie » pour le dessert, Yammmi !
Apres midi, Mic, Arthur et Nasim sont partis pour une autre activité
extra véhiculaire en voiture vers le « Factory Bench » afin de
collecter des échantillons (roches sédimentaires) pour la recherche
scientifique de John.

Regarding other science projects, most of the « daphnia » that Cheryl
has received for her research were dead and she is now waiting for
another set of daphnia. Kerry started his data analysis on different
rock samples that he had collected during the past EVAs. He also
started to do an outreach session by email in a middle school in
Vancouver.
John, our commander, was working during the whole day on a video clip
that we are preparing for our outreach activities. However, we had an
instant electricity cut off this afternoon and he lost all the work he
had saved on his backup USB! But he said that he remembers all the
steps he went through and is now redoing the whole process once again :)
Of course humans are more intelligent than computers and that is why we
should assist robots on Mars!
Tonight, we are having Lasagna + salad + corn for supper. Anna and
Cheryl made another delicious dessert: Biscuits and Apple Body.

Good evening everybody!
Bonne soirée à tous!
