Summary of Hab operations: Some crew members after a hard review, based on their skills on different engineering areas, have identified that the gas-like smell is probably generated by the metal of the stairs, the welding residues and the oxide, we recommend to give a new layer of paint to the staircase to decrease the smell and protect the metal which is showing some signs of corrosion.
