Mission Day 1 (MD1) Song: "Fortunate Son" - CCR Accidentally broke first piece of mission hardware... won't be the last. Watched "Alien" that night, like how South Pole researchers wintering over watch "The Thing" after the last plane leaves. Favorite food: butterscotch pudding

MD2 "Take It Easy" - The Eagles Fix some hardware, transfer some files, rehearsals for later mission phases. Lesson learned: trust your team Favorite food: tomatoes & eggplant

MD3 "Fly Me To The Moon" - Frank Sinatra All about communication: different languages & accents during an inter-group task; great live Q&A from kids at the
@ChallengerCtr of Alaska; remembering (after unrelated verbal venting) the Hab is wired for sound (oops!)

MD4 Song: "Ilia's Theme" - Jerry Goldsmith (one of my choices) Crewmates covered a task I was finishing late, so I made their lunch as thanks. My first phone call with family, and Hawaiian shirt Friday during virtual EVA practice


Fave Foods: Fiesta Chicken, Lemon Curd CakePrikaži ovu nit -
MD5 Song: "Back in Time" - Huey Lewis & The News First mission weekend! Light duty; lots of cleaning and a depressurization drill. Research badges acting up... finicky hardware. Watched "When We Left Earth" and SW:TFA. Beef fajitas w/ tortillas; not bad.

MD6 Song: "Rocket Man" - Elton John Quiet Sunday, finishing/starting books, chatting about private pilots' licenses and grad schools. Watched "Gravity" w/
@Rifftrax track, and was artistically inspired. Fun story: when rehydrating shrimp cocktail, use COLD water, not HOT.#oopspic.twitter.com/OI3k1vjOkt

MD7 Song: "Stellar" - Incubus Wearing sensors on head and face overnight. We'll see how restful that is. Crew tried to start EEG measurements, but hit snags; software won't boot, and none of us speak/read German, which makes troubleshooting difficult. Ground will contact PI.

MD8 Song: "Such Great Heights" -
@PMJofficial (my pick) Only slept fitfully, worried I would break fiber optic cable in my sleep; ironic for a sleep study. We fixed the EEG! Brine shrimp wiggle away too fast for a good microscope picture. You win, brine shrimp... for now.

XI honors 11 

Lots of technical issues today: multi-site teamwork exercise, virtual reality headset, a tablet... but like our heroes taught us, we persevered and got things done
and then we watched alllll the Apollo 11 thingspic.twitter.com/PVWATZmrvb

MD10 Song: "Jupiter" - Gustav Holst Smooth day. We score a victory against the brine shrimp, finally capturing one of them in the slightly misaligned microscope camera.


I have to wear the sleep sensors again tonight... I've started thinking of it as "the Medusa Helm"

MD11 Song: "Starman" - David Bowie Sluggish morning after Medusa Helm, but friendly help setting up a plant study put me back on track. Good chat with family during scheduled call! We watch "Space Camp" (my first time)... I think we have a current crew favorite.

MD12 Song: "Under Pressure" - Queen & D. Bowie (my choice) Feels like first college semester: exciting and new, but routines are forming & midterms coming I make a crewmate mad during a joint task; we talk through it calmly afterward. We're good... but it's a personal low point

MD13 Song: "Also Sprach Zarathustra" - Strauss Start of simulated comms delays: 30 sec one-way light time. Will step up over next several days and really change how we communicate. Happy birthday
@CaswellTess, Queen of the Outer Planets! (after an in-hab scavenger hunt)

MD14 Song: Theme from "The Right Stuff" - Bill Conti 1 min one-way light time; busy day of surveys, blood draws, saliva samples, surveys, cognition tests, more surveys, EEG, more surveys, troubleshooting, housekeeping, don the Medusa Helm, and a few more surveys for good measure

MD15 Song: "I Took A Ride In A Gemini Spacecraft" - David Bowie Mood improved after the weekend's doldrums thanks to a crewmate who asked 1-on-1 if I was feeling okay. They listened, and gave me an incredible compliment. Feeling energized, just in time for rendezvous tomorrow!

MD16 Song: "Everybody Wants to be an Astronaut" - Royal Republic Rendezvous, Day 1: simulated operations at 1620 Geographos! "We come in peace for all mankind, in the spirit of exploration. Now, let's get to work!" First non-food bar breakfast... ok, but not a fan of the eggs.pic.twitter.com/ts0AyxVqYa

MD17 Song: "Shelter from the Storm" - Bob Dylan Rendezvous, Day 2. I'm making simple mistakes; how much of it is comfort & familiarity, and how much from confinement & cumulative stress? One mistake avoided: finally used cold water for my shrimp cocktail! Tastes much better.

MD18 Song: "Fireflies" - Owl City Rendezvous, Day 3. Final EVA at asteroid, followed by departure burn. Major mission objective complete... but still lots of science to support! Doesn't stop a crewmate from a 5700+ kcal dessert feast! Lots of laughs, thankfully no barfing

MD19 Song: "Spaceman" - Babylon Zoo Quiet day; lots of reflection on opportunity costs of the mission (birthdays, weddings, time with kids, etc.) and career & education plans (trying to figure out how to move from "qualified" to "highly qualified" in next AsCan selection)

MD20 Song: "English Country Waltz" - Percy Grainger (my choice) My wife's birthday! Lazy Sunday. Lost at chess, neglected laundry... cutting it close on socks. Watched 2010 (one of my favorites), Simpsons Movie, and Tank Girl (kind of a cult tradition among astronauts)

@AstroPeggy and lost.
Sensors on head for 36 hours, Medusa Helm, sleep deprivation, and Helm again. Don't need surveys to know what's on my mind! (Do surveys anyway.)

MD22 Song: "Eight Miles High" - The Byrds Tough night sleeping due to sensors. I wanted a unique experience, and I'm definitely getting one. Looking forward to better teamwork during an EVA exercise today, and remembering expeditionary thinking; there's opportunity here.

MD23 Song: "Space Oddity" - Chris Hadfield Finally did laundry! Struggled with rock analysis in glove box. For some reason, I have 3 extra pillowcase-size food bags, so I'm mixing my menu more. Another family phone call; I was worried I wouldn't miss them, but I'm happy (?) I do

MD24 Song: "Volunteers" - Jefferson Airplane Lowest weight of the mission, though not unreasonable. 7 hours of sleep didn't feel restful, but they'll have to do: start of sleep deprivation period! All sorts of tests: blood draws, BP, ultrasound, cognition, all the surveys.

MD25: Song: "Hey Brother" - Avicii We fight through 2nd half of sleep deprivation; fasting from midnight to breakfast is hardest. Blood draws and ultrasounds all day, and a midnight virtual EVA! Fatigue makes everything harder. Lots of microsleeps during surveys, but we make it!

MD26 Song: "Starlight" - Muse 39 hours awake earns you 2 extra hours of sleep... still running a deficit, but slept well. I keep forgetting we're allowed to use the ladder between levels again (it was a slip risk from fatigue). Interrupted a crewmate's test with noise... oops!

MD27 Song: "Hells Bells" - AC/DC Biomarkers, surveys, photo sorting. We get 100 pics/week, but we don't usually get close... same folks and same sights every day (but still good company!). The mission's finishing soon, though; if there's a shot we want, it's time to take it!pic.twitter.com/SL6211buY8

MD28 Song: "You & Only You" - The Gabe Dixon Band Lots of "lasts" coming up (except post-egress wrap-up). Mission gains: insight about stress is big, as well as mistakes & recoveries of others and self. Tons of new space knowledge & networking. Crew is close... too close?

MD29 Song: "Intergalactic" - Beastie Boys Slept poorly and woke up hours early. A mix of fatigue, last minute unplanned tasks, and some running jokes wearing thin after a while made today a hard day... we all had challenges today but it's the home stretch, and we saw it through.

MD30 Song: "I Feel Better" - Gotye Woke up grumpy, felt better after reflection, workout, shower. We wrote down our in-jokes, packed up our stuff, donned our flight suits, and watched MST3k "Space Mutiny" before egress events... felt apropos.
Reentry... splashdown... EGRESS!pic.twitter.com/Qjl8dzCXZg
