Summary:
We went North to get familiar with the environment about one kilometer
from the Hab. We filmed and took beautiful pictures despite the cloudy
weather. We managed to find some interesting places for future testing
of the CRV, during another EVA. Every time we stopped, Louis tried to
use the vocal command of the AR glasses, but it never worked, maybe
due to the noise of the ventilation inside his helmet. Hopefully, the
AR glasses are able to show a map of the surrounding, and they display
the hour. The duration of the battery has proven to be sufficient for
a two-hour EVA and we confirm the ergonomics of the AR glasses inside
the helmet.
