Journalist Report: Sol 4 (03Dec2015)

This morning the crew was awoken by the smell of buttermilk pancakes prepared by Nicholas Jewell. Ilaria Cinelli was the lead for today’s EVA #3 mission along side Nicholas Jewell and Philippe Souvestre. Susan Jewell was in charge with EVA communication as the HABCOM and Emmy Jewell took over the position as today’s chef. After donning the suits, EVA #3 crew decompressed and began their mission for aerial scouting with the UAV drone and EMF (electro magnetic field) mapping with GPS and radio communications. Upon return - and after doffing the suits, the entire MDRS Crew 158 sat down to a glorious lunch of Mac N’ Cheese and Beef Stew. Emmy, being a vegan, had Miso soup and a vegan pasta dish. During the four hour down time prior to CAPCOM, Emmy continued with her soil and agriculture studies, Nicholas napped, Susan and Philippe discussed a potential of a pre-study analyzing sleep pattern. Together, the team completed their reports and ate dinner. After CAPCOM, the team plans for 30minute yoga and 10 minute meditation sessions. Once the yoga and meditation have been completed, the crew will have a movie night watching a space inspired film and then officially end the day.
