MCC #5 was performed without any engineering issues. Calculations for MCC #6 have begun with the expectation that the Preliminary shaping burn for EOI will be broken up into a series of burns to slow down our approach speed to Earth while keeping our closest approach outside the atmosphere and also not delaying our arrival at the ISS.

On T+299 days into the mission, several minor pressure leaks were detected in unused Hydroponics modules on SSTV-01. It is suspected that we have flown through the debris scream from a comet. After MCC #5, the Engineering Staff went EVA and applied sealant to the holes. 27 holes were patched before pressure losses fell below measurable values. Total O2 loss was minimal.

All boards are green at this time.

Remaining mission timeline is as follows:
  • T+350 days MCC #6
  • T+365 days Begin preliminary shaping burns for EOI
  • T+375 days EOI and docking with ISS
  • T+390 days Undocking and TLI
  • T+393 days LOI and docking with lunar station and official end to mission #1
