Eva Number:

7

Eva Date:

15 Jan

Time Slot:

laterAM

Purpose:

Travel by ATV north of Hab to collect radio comms check data and collect helmet temperature data

Narrative:

Howell and Crock left the airlock at 10:08 and departed on the EVAs shortly after. They quickly reached the far point of the walking EVA yesterday and continued north on the road. The cross road was difficult to find and was missed on the trip north so Howell and Crock stopped at the end of the road and surveyed the area there briefly before returning south. On the return trip the cross road was identified but it was quickly determined to be too muddy to attempt a traverse. The vehicles were turned around and the team returned to the Hab. The main road had become quite muddy as well but was passable. Based on the experience of the EVA team today, tomorrow's EVA will attempt the same plan but earlier in the day in hopes that the cross road will be frozen and passable.

The EVA did generate four radio comms data points and helmet temperature data on two crew members. Crock and Howell returned at 1:16.
