Commander's Check-In Report

March 21, 2008

Emily Colvin


Crew Physical Status:
After the EVA, we've got a couple of sore people in need of food, but
overall we're doing well.


Time Departed/Returned from EVA:
Departed 16:16
Returned 18:10


Brief Narrative of Field Mission Results:
This was everyone's introduction to the actual wearing of the EVA
suits, which is always fun. This was also a photo-op for our visiting
photographer.


EVA Data/Interpretations:
No data, but Elizabeth seemed happy with the pictures she was able to
get.


Hab Maintenance:
Nothing really today - we cleaned up a bit before Elizabeth got here,
and we rewired the helmets for our radios.


Report Transmission Schedule:
We'll have this, commander's, engineering, journalist, and EVA reports.
And they should be on time.


Plans for Tomorrow:
A few members of the crew are waking up early for a sunrise photo-op
(which they're using as an excuse to see the sunrise), and then we'll
have a full EVA in the afternoon. Expect a tentative EVA plan today or
tomorrow, since I'm not sure if all of the roads (except Sagan St) are
open.


Inventory:
Don came out with a black ink refill and says that we'll have new
cartridges Monday. With the black ink we got today, we'll be able to
make our own nametags.


Support Requested:
None.


Miscellaneous:
It's been a long day, and I think everybody's going to want to sleep
early tonight. At least that way we'll quit doing things like breaking
Tabasco bottles...
