Oh what a wonderful day, nice warm and clear skies. Not to mention having the population go down by one person. Here we are sitting at a lovely -10F temperature. The winds are light and out of the NE meaning we must restrict the movements of all motorized vehicles because of the chance of contamination of the clean air sector. I am looking out one of the windows in the Mobile Science Facility (MSF) at a vast white plain with very little to break up the snow surface.
We finished up the laser work last night, with only small adjustments left for the near future. My work on the Meteorological program has yet to begin, due to the measurements being used for all of the flight operations. I won't be able to do much until next Monday when we have the last flight for this period. Once I can dig into the system the real work begins.
Some news from the station, we are undergoing a crew change this week. The new crew is working hard to learn the ropes and to make it their home for the next 4 months. I will be training the new techs on the changes I am doing after they have a chance to settle in. I am looking forward to the old crew leaving so that the station population will drop into the 30's making it a much more livable station.
