Crew 290 Operations Report 10-01-2023

SOL: 3

Name of person filing report: Anna Tretiakova

Non-nominal systems: Toilet Tank Sensor

Notes on non-nominal systems: The toilet tank was at full on the sensor and was emptied. After hearing that everything went through the pipe, the sensor still showed that the tank is ⅔ full. Mission support was contacted and they said that is an issue with some gunk stuck on the sensor. In addition to the sensor problems, the whole room stinks. Moving forward, is it possible to get a febreeze? Hopefully the emptying of the septic tank solves this issue.
