Narrative Of Field Mission Results:

Josh and I climbed the butte north of MDRS with a spectrograph and collected samples. Approx coordinates were 12S 0518552 E 4251463 N. Kavya and Jorge concurrently practiced non-verbal communication via hand signals near the hab and interacted with our little rover. Despite the distance between the two teams we remained within eyesight of each other. The EVA was a resounding success and we finished early. For a more eloquent report see mdrs141.weebly.com
