Questions, concerns, and requests to Mission Support:

– Regarding use of tables in the lower deck: There is a 3 foot wooden table in the spacesuit room and two 5 foot plastic tables in the lower deck. Requesting permission to swap the wooden table with one of the longer plastic ones so we can accommodate all one-piece EVA suits in the spacesuit room.

– Request permission to change out water filter that was delivered earlier today.

– Reviewed possible fixes for the skirt of the HAB as requested. Suggest using sheet metal screws and the electric drill to fasten skirting in place. Respectfully request permission to perform this repair via engineering EVA.

– There’s a picture attached of the base of a small tv screen/computer monitor that is in the hab, but does not seem to have the proper cords available for use. Does anyone know if the cords are available anywhere in the hab site?

– The laptop labeled “Hab” in the upper deck also does not have the proper cords to check for power. Please advise.

Thank you for removing the unneeded items we left outside. There are a few additional items we put outside for pickup.
