Questions, concerns, and requests to Mission Support: put notes here.
– All Hab doors are secured properly as per the weather forecast from Mission Support.
– Checked for tennis balls on the fence and zip ties on tarps for tarp safety:
HAB to RAM:
· 2 zip ties missing due to the torn holes used for zip ties. Was thinking of making another hole a little further from that location and securing it using a zip tie.
· The bottom tarp of the overlapping tarp section needs to be secured (I would recommend at least three points). Need advice from Mission Support
· A small hole was detected in the tarp. Is any action required? Does the mission support want me to put a tape on it?
HAB to Green Hab:
· 2 locations were found that need to be secured using zip ties. Will use the zip ties to secure them.
· A small hole was detected in the tarp near Green Hab. Is any action required?
Green Hab to Science Dome:
· 4 locations were found to be secured using zip ties. Will use the zip ties to secure them.
Science Dome to Observatory:
