General notes and comments:
During an EVA, a plastic handle from the passenger side roll cage on Demos came off. We have the handle, but no hardware to re-attach it.
Generator was turned off at 9:25
Generator was turned on at 18:24
I’ve found two extension cords that have been damaged and need to be replaced. If there are 3 prong plugs available, I can repair the cords. Please advise.
Summary of internet: Tests were run on the internet connectivity and passed on to Bernard.
Summary of suits and radios: I’ve passed on a report about the EVA suits
Summary of Hab operations: Propane was smelt again this afternoon around 4pm. The heater had been turned off for 24 hours, and nothing else was on. I strongly suggest a licensed contractor investigate the propane leak before another team moves into Hab. There is a significant safety risk as we have not been able to pinpoint the source of the leak.
Summary of EVA operations: Nominal
Summary of GreenHab operations: The temperature gauge display has some non-functional LCD areas, a new one has been ordered.
Summary of Science Dome operations: The science dome is awaiting a portable heater as per the MDRS Director.

Questions, concerns and requests to Mission Support: We could use another bag of toilet deodorizer, as we only have one puck left.
