General notes and comments: During the night, a small mouse was captured with one of the two traps in the Hab. The morning, after a scheduled EVA was concluded, an Engineering EVA was organised to free the mouse close to Cowboy’s Corner. Crew Engineer Paolo and Crew Journalist Zoe travelled for about 20 minutes with Curi to the location and freed the mouse in a bush. On the way back there was a small problem with the radios, but it was solved as it was determined that a button was incidentally pushed while mounting the rover. Today was a resting day for most of the crew, and we had birthday cookies for our Spacesuit engineer Camilo.

Summary of internet: Nothing to report.

Summary of suits and radios: Nothing to report.

Summary of Hab operations: A mouse was found on the upper deck around 1:45AM; it was inside one of the rooms and then moved to another, passing under the doors. A trap was placed and the mouse walked into it. An Engineering EVA was performed in the morning to release it. Other points: it was not possible to fix the oven; the Space chess board is missing a pawn; the leak from the pump has now penetrated the roof in the commander’s room through the loft floor plywood.

Summary of GreenHab operations: some sage was collected for lunch. A lizard was found inside, but it escaped once it saw a crew member.

Summary of ScienceDome operations: cleaning was performed by the crew.

Summary of RAM operations: Drone cleaning, repairs and testing were performed.

Summary of any observatory issues: Nothing to report.

Summary of health and safety issues: Nothing to report.

Questions, concerns and requests to Mission Support: we need a static water tank refill. We have run out of kitchen paper.
