Notes:

The crew is healthy and happy, with no major issues reported. A planning day in hab gave us the time to conduct both a fitness routine (led by Paul Knightly) and a yoga class (led by Paul Sokoloff) for crew 143 - no doubt any extended sim will require in-hab exercise to maintain physical health.

In the evening we began basic first aid briefings for the crew. We have decided to cover one or two topics an evening for the remainder of the sim, allowing us to tackle problems and techniques in depth. Today we covered treatment for heat exhaustion and heatstroke, followed by a briefing on the health risks posed by encounters with Arctic wildlife. Finally, the crew was surprised with a second fire drill.
