Hab Upgrade Report
Emily Colvin Reporting

Today was spent up close and personal with the power meter. I moved the C40 out of the way and mounted the main LCD and the control boxes under the DC fusebox. I've finished making most of the DC connecting wires (that aren't going to be modified from existing connections), and we'll start getting everything connected tomorrow. The CMT film crew made things a little more difficult, because in the morning when I was working on mounting everything, I had to be completely silent for long periods of time while they were interviewing. Pictures of the full process will be uploaded after I get home (and have unlimited bandwidth), but I'll get a couple uploaded to the Crew 47 Engineering folder on the WebDAV tonight.

If possible, I'll also get the C40 set up tomorrow. Might as well do everything while we've got power off.

I'm also contemplating the design of the stairs, although I wouldn't be able to do anything this rotation – now I'm not the only one to have fallen down the stairs.
