Scouting (Day 1)
We spent the day scouting out the EVA sites we’d like to use for our experiments. We decided on 8 sites north and south of the habitat. The weather was warmer than expected (a brisk 20ish degrees F) but the wind while driving was pretty rough. We tested some technology today as well. For example, we need really precise GPS tracker and found great success using a Garmin dog tracking collar! We also put together a little remote control rover to try out tomorrow. Fingers crossed its all terrain as advertised! We had a great meal of tortellini, chicken sausage, broccoli and carrots and a great convo about board games with Mission Support to close out the night.
Best,
Aaron
