Hi-ho, hi-ho...

37 degrees, calm, bits of blue sky with only a few snowflakes... looks like a good day. I've decided to not redeploy to a third drilling site, since even repaired the drill will be flaky. Better to wrap up some bonus tasks at this site... exciting the shaft vertically so we can characterize the frequencies and modes of movement along that axis. And integrating some of our control software with Honeybee's. That should take us to early afternoon, then after lunch we'll start tearing down the site and packing -- the drill team leaves tomorrow.


An overview of our hilltop site, on the grey breccia:



And the drill in action there... Erik looks cold ;-).

Context is indeed everything. Shouldn't this have gone along with the post you made last night? ;-)

My first thought: 37 degrees? I had no idea it got so hot there! Heh.

Freudian, purely... Devon Island is a touch-free zone, after all. Purely collegial, not even hugs.
