Summary of suits and radios: The battery in suit number 10 died. The fan stopped working after 1 h of use. Once back at the station the battery voltage was measured at 8.5 V with the fan off and 3.0 V with the fan on, while another suit (9) with the same amount of use was measured at 12.6 V off and 12.4 V on. After an hour charging it got to 12 V off but dropped to 8 V on, and the working suit was already at 13.3 V.

Summary of Hab operations: The higher water consumption today is due to the entire crew taking a shower. Everyone was limited to 1 min of water use, this resulted in around 10 to 12 gallons in total for the 6 members.

Summary of suits and radios: After leaving the battery of suit N 10 to charge all night the voltage measured 12.6 V with the fan off and again dropped to 8.6 V with the fan on. The battery was changed for a new one as discussed yesterday. The new battery was measured before the first charge at 12.7 V with only a 0.2 V drop with the fan on. After 30 min charging it got to 13.5 V, measuring it after 1 h resulted in the same value, so the suit was disconnected and turned on. As soon as it was turned on, the voltage went down from 13.2 V to 12.6 V over the course of 1 min. 4 measurements were taken at 15 min intervals; it remained at 12.3 V. The last measurement was taken 2 hs after turn on, reading 12.2 V. We conclude from this test that the new battery works as expected. The suit is now off and charging along with the others.

Summary of internet: An extra window was requested for today as we had an interview on live TV, both audio and video worked smoothly without any issues.
Summary of suits and radios: A single one-piece suit was lent to the filming crew. It was later cleaned and disinfected. No radio was given to them. We wish to note that the actor wearing it bumped it a couple of times while trying to enter the rover for the video. We will inspect it tomorrow in search of any new marks on the acrylic.

Summary of ScienceDome operations: same as yesterday: used the blender, 3 large and 1 small paper filters, the microwave, the oven, 2 large erlenmeyer flasks, 1 large and 4 small beaker glasses, the scale, and the mortar and pestle. All this was used to recover starch from rice and potatoes and then mix it with a soil sample to create a concrete-like material. It was also used by the filming crew in the morning.
Dual split: Off
Summary of RAM operations: Used only by the filming crew
Summary of any observatory issues: None
