Mission Journal 4 — Jim Buckley: Mission Day 2: Friday, April 25th, 2003
I haven’t had too much time to sit and do any computer work, but early morning seems to be best for me anyway. Yesterday went by way too quickly, as does all of the “Day One of Missions”. Between giving the briefing and getting the kinks worked out of the system, training the new Aquanauts how to use the Hooka equipment, and gearing up for the Media events that will happen on Friday morning, my day flew by.I did get a chance to call my mother for her birthday. I thought she said 39th, but the connection was not that great. And, since I’m 39…. enough of the non-humor.
Happy Birthday Mom!
Friday will bring some early morning checklist work with the “new” technician Billy, the Orlando science Center will connect with us and we’ll give a tour of the Habitat and answer some of the questions they might have for us. Then we’ll get the divers back out in the water where they belong.
So much for now.
