Operations Report – February 21st

Crew 189 Operations Report 21/02/2018
SOL: 3

Name of person filing report: Gabriel PAYEN

Non-nominal systems: Pipe leak, Fans on backpack 2 & 6, roof heater, light bulb in the bathroom, hesitation about burnable/unburnable trashes.

-Pipe :
The pipe in the low desk still leaks

-Roof Heater :
It’s still difficult to control the heater

-Backpacks :
All engineering checks were nominals, but during the EVA fans of backpack 2 and 6 turned out of service and both helmets were very foggy.
Backpacks 2 and 6 joined backpacks 3 and 4 to the list of backpacks the crew need to fix. The crew was supposed to fix them today but the we were all very busy. I hope we’ll begin tomorrow.

-Light bulb :
At 5:00 PM, a crew member was unable to light on the bulb in the bathroom. It seems that it is broken.

-Trashes :
During the EVA engineering check, the EVA members had to but five wastes bags into the outside trashes but “Burnable” and “Unburnable” weren’t indicated. Therefore, they randomly put the wastes into the trashes, which is quite pity considering we do a selective sorting for wastes.

Questions, concerns and requests to Mission Support:

Bulb :
Is it possible to have a new light bulb for the bathroom ?
Brand, model and specifications of the old one : Lights of America – 2814 S – 120V 60Hz 14W 255mA

Pipe leak :
Does a map of all Hab pipes exist ? I still don’t find were the leak comes from. I thought it could be a cooling or heating water, therefore I checked both heaters (roof and wall) today, and they are OK.
The crew is out of ideas considering this leak (I also checked taps yesterday), therefore such a map can help me.

Trashes :
The crew needs indications about trashes to know exactly in which ones burnable and unburnable wastes have to be put into.
