General Notes and Comments: None

Summary of Internet: While restoring Hab power the Internet router failed to power up properly. After several attempts to reboot the router, Outpost was contacted and advised of the concern. The router was sent to them, and they are working on repairing or replacing it. Two crew members from the MAU team brought a router that they had in their possession and installed it as a temporary replacement, with the permission of Outpost.

Summary of Suits and Radios: No EVAs were conducted from MDRS today, but crew members drilled in donning and doffing procedures. Suits and radios are all charging after restoration of power, and all systems appear to be operating nominally.

Summary of Hab Operations: We were still in emergency operations for the first portion of the day, but power was restored with a standby rental generator at approximately 0900. The decision was made to restore power to electrical systems with a staggered ramp up, beginning with radio comms, then suits, rovers, and Internet, and then full load after the SOC was stable above 50%. All systems appear to be operating nominally at this time. Our crew is extremely grateful for the dedicated effort of the Outpost team in restoring power for us.

Summary of GreenHab Operations: Please refer to the GreenHab Report

Summary of RAM Operations: No operations today

Summary of Observatory Issues: None

Summary of Health and Safety Issues: Please Refer to the Health and Safety Report

Questions, concerns, and requests to Mission Support:We have no specific concerns or requests at this time.

General Notes and Comments: None

Summary of Internet: 300mb

Summary of Suits and Radios: Suits are in good working conditions. During our EVAs many of our Radios died despite being fully charged. Currently all the yellow radios work and only 2 blue ones are working. We are charging all radios to test them once charged. Additionally, we only have 2 headsets that worked during our EVAs today.

Summary of Hab Operations: We have been operating on a state of emergency power due to the generator not being functional. We have used minimal lighting and are currently on flashlight power. We have not used Hab power for charging devices today although we did charge the spacesuits, radios and rovers. We did not fill the Loft tank today and have been using as little water that is driven from a pump as possible today to conserve what power we had.

Summary of GreenHab Operations: See GreenHab report

Summary of ScienceDome Operations: No operations today

Summary of RAM Operations: No operations today

Summary of any observatory issues: No issues

Summary of Health and Safety issues: See Health and Safety Report

Questions, concerns and requests to Mission Support: We just request to be kept appraised of the generator situation, especially to be notified when the state of emergency is over or any updates as to the duration of the state of emergency so that we can take appropriate steps.
