Commander's Report
Judah Epstein Reporting
Crew 97 has returned back to Earth. As of 15:00 today, the crew ended Simulation and was able to walk outside without the constraints of a spacesuit.
Crew 97's final day in Simulation consisted of continuation of scientific experiments and EVAs. Inside the Hab, today was extended psychophysiological analysis on each crew-member with 11 minutes of exposure three times throughout the day to digital images and sounds and white screens to define emotion on three parameters of cognitive/psychological, physiological, and social.
Final testing was completed on the slow sand filters with extended tests including bacteria results. Additionally, the GigaPan 360 degrees panoramic camera of the Sandstorm Rover was successfully tested.
EVAs today consisted of Satellite data comparison and data collecting in collaboration with a fellow scientist, as well as GigaPan testing.
The crew is completing their final night at the Hab with preparations for tomorrow's crew handover and a final crew game of Imaginiff for our psychophysiological analyst to compare with the results from the Imaginiff game from the crew's first night at the Hab
