Although this crew was a shakedown crew and we spent most of our time making the hab better for future crews, we managed to have fun and get in a couple of great EVAs in the suits. We called it a limited sim and made the best of our time at MDRS time. The crew worked very well together and not only improved the MDRS significantly but also came up with a design for the new hab.

This crew got along very well considering that with the exception of Bob Pohl and I, we were strangers. We seemed to fall into a comfortable routine almost immediately. Even when we were debating the design for the new hab, which is a touchy subject between three architects, we were very considerate for each others feelings and there was very little tension. This crew went from being strangers to being good friends in a matter of 5 days. The enthusiasm that the Europeans had for helping finish MDRS was something I hadn't expected. They acted as if it were their hab.( it is), and did an outstanding job. It is a very interesting mix in the Mars Society as shown by this crew. With there being no lifestyle demands made on the members, the only thing we all have in common is our desire to reach for the stars.
