Summary of health and safety issues: Yesterday evening, a Crew Member fell during a regular sport session, and broke their clavicula. The HSO immediately responded, with the help of the whole crew. Mission Support was quickly informed and reacted very promptly. Sergii called 911 and provided us with all the support we needed. The Crew Member was evacuated to the Sevier Valley Hospital, accompanied by the HSO. After examinations and treatment, the injured Crew Member and HSO came back at 14:30 this afternoon, as the Commander and Crew Scientist drove to the hospital with the Crew Car to bring them back to the MDRS.

Questions, concerns, and requests to Mission Support:
• Concerning our experiment which uses Internet, do you know if there a firewall on MDRSCampus that blocks any SSH connection to a remote server? If this is the case, do you think that it would be possible to allow SSH connection to the IP address 51.178.183.7?
