Commander's Check-In Report

Commander's Report

Anne-Sophie Kalbfleisch

Today was our first day "on Mars". In the morning a first team went outside in the astronaut suits to discover the surroundings by quad.

They found 4 different samples of stones. In the afternoon the 3 other astronauts made a trip by quad and came back with some fossils of shells. Today we tried a "non cooking day" and it wasn't that bad, to our surprise.
