EVA 8 Report

Jim Crowell Reporting

Time: 14:16 / 14:58

Crew Members: Amanda Damptz, Judah Epstein, Jim Crowell

Site Location: South of the Hab, back to where slush flow was found in EVA 7

Transit Mode: ATVs

Objectives: To measure the height of the slush flow

Results: Ascent to the top of the flow from one location was too steep, making it impossible to reach. It was decided to abort the EVA and return on foot at a later time.

Lessons Learned: Quick access to an area is not always the best route to take.
