T+49:16:38 Interlock sensors are somewhat jumbled; readings show extremely low pressure and oxygen.
T+49:20:43 Astronauts report that the dust storm seems to have quietened.
T+49:25:39 Astronauts report no unusual noises.
T+49:29:08 Astronauts turn on more lights.
T+49:32:22 Authorization granted for Kelli to perform an IVA to the interlock.
T+49:34:20 MC plans to vent air from the shower's air tank as Kelli enters the bathroom;
this should prevent explosive decompression of the longhouse should the bathroom be depressurized.
T+49:36:20 Sensor readings seem to indicate that the bathroom is pressurized; however, air will
still be vented as a pre-emptive measure.
T+49:39:17 Astronaut Yi Yuan reports hearing a thud outside the habitat.
T+49:40:07 Static on the headsets.

T+51:28:55 Alex: "I'm going to see if I can install Satan on Hyperbola."
T+51:29:40 Alex continues his search for Satan.
T+51:45:30 Power surge causes Stonehenge to temporarily go down.

T+56:05:00 John repairs leak, Emergency over.
T+56:38:00 Astronauts leave message on AuxCom indicating that they again have a hull breach
in the Interlock. This breach is larger than the first. Astronauts lie down and sleep to conserve oxygen.
T+62:59:30 Logs reactivated for final day.
T+63:00:00. Astronauts retreat to Longhouse. Interlock at 73% oxygen. Astronauts await MC staff to preform EVA.
