HMP Research Station Update July 29, 2005

Today's activities centered around a major traverse into the Haughton Crater so that Dr. Jeff Jones could complete his sampling of unvisited locations looking to see if the human associated microbes have altered the local microflora for a planetary protection study. As well on the same traverse Dr. Brian Glass also needed to completed his sampling gravity measurements for his research.

Both of them along with four other participants then caught a late afternoon flight to Resolute ending their work at the HMP Research Station for the year.
