The Deimos probe is still working. Certain experts on Earth said the repairs we made on the probe wouldn't last a day, while other insisted that we'd never get it to work again. Whaterver! Also, Leonid is spending more time in the gravity mode sections of the ship than the rest of us to help his broken arm heal. So far, Melody says that his arm is healing at a fast rate than expected, but problably not as fast as it would if Leon were on Earth. that, of course, is mainly because gravity on the ICSE is approxiamtely equal to that of Mars. We briefly thought about generating Earth gravity on the ICSE, but we knew that wouldn't be entirely practical since everyone on the ship is still used to Mars gravity. But then we could gradually increase the rate of spin on ICSE so that we can slowly adjust to Earth gravity. But we didn't want to risk damaging the ship's structural integrity.
