Several participants traversed to the Geological Survey of Canada Dome, including Dr. John Parnell from the University of Aberdeen and Phd. student, Scott Thackrey, Prof. Charlie Mason from Morehead State University and his students, Megan Ennis and Bill Atwood. Pauline Akeeagok (Senior Field Guide from Grise Fiord), and two Air National Guardsmen, Stefano Guadagnuolo and Warren Ruedy went on a separate traverse to do some surveying.
The Humvee was very carefully packed and went on a dry run through Von Braun Planatia in preparation for a Moon traverse scenario that will be starting tomorrow. The project is being led in the field by Andrew Abercromby (Project Engineer, EVA Physiology Systems and Performance Project / NASA Johnson Space Center) and Dr. Pascal Lee (Director, HMP / NASA Ames, Mars Institute, SETI Institute). The project's Principal Investigator is astronaut Mike Gernhardt at NASA Johnson Space Center.
