POSTED ONMARCH 22, 2018 Sol Summary – March 22nd Crew 190 Sol Summary Report 22 March 2018

Sol 11

Summary Title: Happy Birthday!

Michael Saint-Guillain (XO)

Mission Status: Ready to continue simulation for the last day on Mars (Sol 12), 08:00

Sol Activity Summary: 8:20 Gym 8:35 Medic inspection 8:50 Breakfast 9:40 EVA: Bastien (cartography), Sophie (placement of muon detector), Mario (photos), Michael (support) 12:05 End of EVA – Crew meeting – Relaxation 13:00 Lunch 14:00 Scientific & academic work – Interviews continued (Ariane) 18:00 Report redaction 19:00 CapCom

Look Ahead Plan: Sol 12: Notes: Last EVA for Maximilien & Ariane (soil sampling), Fred (collection of the experiment he placed outside several days ago), Martin (support). Part of the crew will conclude their experiments in the afternoon while the others will do some clean up inside the MDRS. Sol 12 will be the last day under simulation. On Sol 13 we will welcome Crew 191.

Anomalies in work: None.

Weather: Very cloudy all day long… Preventing from sun telescope activities, despite the sun storm announced. Too bad. Hopefully tomorrow will still allow us to observe residual sun activities.

Crew Physical Status: Still tired, but we observe an improvement compared to the couple of last days! However we have significantly more difficulty to recover after the morning gym.

EVA: See EVA report.

POSTED ONMARCH 18, 2018 Sol Summary – Marth 18th Today, it was planned to have a day off to relax, make the food inventory, clean up a bit the station and leave on EVA. After waking up, Michael and Sophie began a gym session while others were just relaxing up to midday. After that we had a Sunday lunch composed of mashed potatoes with chicken and compote. Our bellies being fully filled up, five crew members left for an EVA towards “yellow moon” to take soil samples, pictures and exploit the drone (see EVA report). Unfortunately, the weather was too windy and as a consequence it was impossible the fly with the drone. We came back to the Hab at 15h47 and we started to clean our living place. Shannon came to spoke with us about tracks found in the desert. This morning we have seen motorbikes and probably ATVs riding off road.

Tonight we will have the dinner and a board game time to strengthen the team spirit.

Concerning the food inventory, we will need some food supplies. It would be really appreciated if a space ship can bring us these food supplies.

Regarding the station, a part from the MDRS aeration felt. During the EVA, we tried to dismantle the wheel of the broken rover. Unfortunately, the tools provided do not fit.

Look Ahead Plan: Sol 6:


Notes: EVA (Max, Mario, Ariane, Mick) in the morning (scientific work for the others). Scientific work in the afternoon.


Anomalies in work: Today we tried to get the Phoenix remote controlled rover working; after fixing some battery issues, we noticed that the rover was not able to connect to the (dedicated) router wifi. We had to manually change the clock of the rover it self in order to fix that problem: the rover had the correct date, but not the router, which we cannot fix (probably the internal clock battery of the router is dead). With similar date/times, router and rover are now able to talk to each other. The video transmission is working, but the commands are still bugging (can’t move the wheels, and cams movement is working randomly).

Weather: Sunny in the morning. Cloudy in the afternoon. Nice weather.

Crew Physical Status: Good.

EVA: See EVA report.
