In this morning, we did an additional EVA for Japanese TV broadcasting.
Meanwhile, the rest of crew worked hard with clean up and packing our staff (aibo too!) for check out the HAB. And also, we are pleased to announce that: We finally cleaned the loft tank. That is, the water tank problem in HAB has solved completely!
Before we took the things in HAB over to the following crew 192, we went on a small trip on the Hab Ridge. How amazing the landscape is.
Now we felt great satisfaction with coming here MDRS. Thank you Mission Support Team again!

About The MDRS

The Mars Desert Research Station in the Utah desert was established by the Mars Society in 2001 to better educate researchers, students and the general public about how humans can survive on the Red Planet. It is the second Mars analogue habitat after the Flashline Mars Arctic Research Station was established in 2000.

Over 200 crews of six-person teams have lived in 1-2 week field visits at MDRS to simulate life on the Martian surface. Researchers and students alike have explored the Mars-like terrain in the area surrounding the station in full “spacesuits”, maintained the station’s systems, grown plants in the GreenHab to support themselves and even recycled their waste water.

Our activities at MDRS are not only about informing the public, but also conducting real research to bring humanity that much closer to the reality of human exploration on the planet Mars.

Annual field seasons at MDRS run approx. October through May. Anybody can apply to be on a crew, and we also need volunteers to help with the project.
