Duration: 17:25-18:21 (56 minutes) Participants: Amy Blank, Daniel Hegeman, Ryan Kobrick, Jason Schwier Equipment: Cameras, GPS device Route:

• 4250.93N 0518.17E to 4250.32N 0519.09E
• 4250.32N 0519.09E to 4250.93N 0518.17E

Objectives/Work Done: This wasn't a planned EVA per se, but a chance for four crewmembers to learn the basics about their spacesuits and the resulting mobility they provide. One crew member was picking up another at an airport, so the rest of the crew just decided to "go for a walk" and ended up traveling about 1.6 km roundtrip. We followed previous ATV tracks up to the top of a steep hill to experiment with our range of flexibility. We took a sample of an interesting rock, saved its GPS coordinates in the device, and took photographs of it. This was just to test whether we could use the camera and GPS device while wearing the suits. We then explored around the Hab and photographed a localize orange lichen patch on some boulders, returning just before it got dark.

Weather: Clear and Sunny.

Maximum distance from Hab: .83 km

Lessons Learned:

1. How to use the radios and to properly adjust equipment before egress. Tape should be used plentifully to attach microphones to the face.
2. Fatigue sets in quicker than thought and it takes longer to "catch one's breath". However, since the crew are relatively young this should not be a problem.
