Summary Title

A Successful Rocket Launch!

Mission Status:

Good

Sol Activity Summary:

The majority of our day was spent preparing for successful launch of a high powered rocket. We obtained final clearance from the FAA earlier this week, and called in our NOTAM to clear the airspace. Last night and this morning, we performed final preparations on the rocket and then assembled the launch tower during EVA. We had a successful launch, which was incredible to see! We are planning to recover the rocket this evening after it cools down, and will see what the pictures look like.

Look Ahead Plan: We will continue our learning with discussion of ultrasound in spaceflight as well as genitourinary issues.

Anomalies in work:

None

Weather:Sunny, Very Warm

Crew Physical Status:Very happy after the launch this morning!

EVA: A successful launch!

After the EVA, we studied celestial navigation and using star plots to find locations on a planet. We also welcomed the arrival of crewmember Rick Cole.

Look Ahead Plan: We will continue our learning with discussion of SANS, winter, and water survival training.

Anomalies in work: EVA aborted due to illness in crewmember.

Weather:Sunny, Very Warm

Crew Physical Status:The affected crewmember has recovered and is feeling well.

EVA: Per above

First EVA

Mission Status:

Good

Sol Activity Summary:

Today was our first day in simulation. We learned about atmospheric composition and toxicology on spacecraft and habitats. We also discussed space suit design and had our first EVA.

Look Ahead Plan: We will continue our learning with discussion of radiation and celestial navigation.

Anomalies in work:

The Hab power system continue to be unreliable. We are on solar currently, but the system cuts out without warning. In addition, it does not appear to be sufficient to both power the Hab and recharge the batteries. The generator is able to power the Hab, but not to charge the batteries.
