Eva Report – January 26th

Crew 220 EVA Report 26Jan2020 (MAU Station)

EVA # 1

Author: Johannes Svensoy, MD

Purpose of EVA: Moving personnel and equipment between MDRS and MAU Stations.

Start time: 1500

End time: 1700

Narrative: Incoming MDRS crew members helped the outgoing MDRS crew move their equipment over to MAU Station. The Spirit and Curiosity rovers were used to move equipment over to MAU Station. After returning the rovers, the crewmembers who are now going to stay at MAU Station walked over to MAU station to settle in. It was a nice walk between the stations taking in the beautiful Martian terrain along the way.

Destination: MDRS Station and MAU Station.

Coordinates (use UTM NAD27 CONUS): 4250050,518500

Participants: HabComm: Connie (MDRS). EVA Crew: Johannes, Shawna, Morgan.

Road(s) and routes per MDRS Map: Entrance road out to Cow Dung Road. Cow Dung Road South to MAU station.

Mode of travel: EVA with Rovers to move equipment.

Support Requested: No support requested during EVA.

Commander Report – January 26th

Summary Title: Sunday’s Trinity

Author’s name: Connie Delisle, Commander
Mission Status: Nominal
Sol Activity Summary: Along with transfer for personnel this morning came the transfer of Command of MDRS Station from Commander Shawna to Commander Connie; and at MAU, from Commander John to Commander Shawna. This first-ever MAU-MDRS Station-to-Station Mission purposefully includes command transfers to test differences between governance (leadership models). Several of the MDRS Crew will have coordinated three “departures” by the end of this day: Several Crew were quarantined; a joint MAU-MDRS EVA was done to the MAU Station using the Rovers (Spirit and Curiosity); and a return of the MAU Crew to its Station. We are finding synergy in “threes”. The morning activities at MRDS Station included medical training for non-medical professionals. The informative, hands on training session was co-presented by Dr. Johannes Svenszoy and MD Dr. Shawna Pandya, MD. The first training block covered the procedure for applying the METHANE procedure:[Major Incident, Exact Location, Type of incident, Hazards involved, Access to Site Number of Causalities, and Emergency Services Needed]. This session was followed by Dr’s Pandya and Svensoy reviewing the procedure for conducting P-MARCH-P [Patient, Personnel, Permission, Personal Protective Gear; Massive Hemorrhage and C-Spine; Airway; Respirations; Circulation and Head/Hypothermia. After lunch the Doctors resumed the training session, reviewing CPR and bagging (resuscitation) procedures inclusive of hands on practice using the technique.

Team lead Commander Shawna managed gracefully through some communications technology issues at the start of the afternoon EVA to the MAU station. Keeping safety first, the Crew successfully completed the EVA, capturing photos and returned to MDRS at 17:45. Dr. Pandya then completed the EVA wellness study which entails collecting biometrics data.

Look Ahead Plan: Tomorrow’s morning and afternoon Medical EVAs will consist of testing an innovation entitled the “Golden Bubble”. The Bubble is a prototype of a first-of-its kind pressured Medivac transport System.
Anomalies in work: NA
Weather: -3C low / 3C max, 0C average, 40% chance of precipitation tomorrow
Crew Physical Status: Excellent mental focus, with positive feedback about the high quality medical training sessions.
EVA: 1 AM MDRS – MAU joint EVA performed today as above

Summary Title: Olympus MAUns Approacheth
Author’s name: Shawna Pandya, Commander
Mission Status: MAUminal
Sol Activity Summary: The day began with a skeleton crew, as several members are in quarantine as part of our simulation, so we are down to 6 between MAU-MDRS station, and look forward to working, growing and bonding together as a small group over the next few sols. We spent the morning going over additional medical drills and training in anticipation of our medical EVAs over the next few sols. Later on, Commander Pandya and XO Svensoy moved out to MAU station to take command of operations there, while acting Commander Delisle stepped up to run the MDRS operations. The days ahead will be full, and we all look forward to them. Our sol tonight will end with a "Grand Rounds" academic activity wherein one of our officers will teach the crew about an area of their passion, along with a crew round-table discussion of emergency and medical kit planning – and a little fun and bonding, of course.
Look ahead plan: Tomorrow, the crew will put their medical learning and drilling into practice over the course of a morning recap session, followed by two medical EVAs in front of the hab to simulate these skills in an EVA setting.
Weather: -3C low / 2C max, 0C average, 40% chance of precipitation tomorrow

Sol 7 Commander’s Report

Author: Shawna Pandya, Commander

Title: Fly Me to the MAU…

A new sol, a new station. In the morning XO Svensoy and I ran some further medical training and drills with the MAU-MDRS crew, including the METHANE protocol for calling in a major incident, redrilling P-MARCH-P for a primary trauma survey, and going over CPR techniques. We were so impressed with the crew’s ability to learn take on complex concepts in a short amount of time.

In ongoing project news, I have been able to get the sensors back online for one of our biometric study, which was a HUGE win after trying to do so for the past few days.

Later on, XO Svensoy and I packed up and moved out for MAU station, with Officer Kainu briefing us as to the station operations. We are delighted with the station and look forward to building a culture and program that is associated with the MAU crew. As a good portent, XO Svensoy has put up some stars up on the station, so I can indeed say that the constellations are different at MAU station.

Looking forward to the spls ahead…

Change to crops:

Crops picked for cooking: 2g cilantro, 1g chives, 4g lettuce, 1g lemon balm, 35g icicle radish leaves, 3g acorn pumpkin, 1g rosemary.

OTHER NOTES:

Swept the floor because water was dripping from the shelves and it was stored/clogged in front of the table and blue tank. Next time, I should be more careful when watering

Moved two white bowls with snow pea plants into the floor, as they were drying out probably because of excess heat from the heater

Put some bricks/stones in front of the entrance (below the thermometer just outside of GreenHab), as the entrance was muddy and slippery, there were some risks of falling down

QUESTION: There are some empty tubs with soil, may I use them for harvesting tomorrow? For example: 9 Pepper tubs tags, 2 red tomatoes etc. Please advise. Thanks.

Sol: 6

Summary Title: Science day in Hab

Author’s name: Johannes Svensoy, MD.

Mission Status: Indoorsily Nominal

Sol Activity Summary: The day started with a joint briefing between the two Crews after MAU Crew came over to the MDRS Hab. Both Crews presented parts of the New Right Stuff book with further discussion around each crew member’s personal mission and how both Crews could support each other here on Mars. After lunch the rest of the day was set for medical training. After doing a trauma exercise with an ankle trauma, the whole Crew was trained in both first and secondary assessment based on the P-MARCH-P protocol. The Crew trained on trauma cases using the training briefed. The whole crew was trained on using the Golden Bubble pressurized medevac device and how to implement this into Medical EVA missions for future medical EVA drills. The Crew has also grown Kombucha in the Science lab, which after a few days of growing was tested and also analyzed for both bacterial growth.

Look Ahead Plan: On Sol 7 there is a planned change of Stations, meaning both Crews will change stations, a few of the crewmembers are going into a simulated quarantine.

Anomalies in work: None

Weather: Overcast, no precipitation. Average 0C, high 2C, low +3C, 10% chance of precipitation.

Crew Physical Status: Well, excited for the days ahead.
