Personal notes
Aside benign disagreements, the crew is working smoothly. Step by step I have assigned other responsibilities to some crew-members:
– Jon/Geologist: plan the EVAs and report back to me
– Anastasiya/Journalist: manage and plan the reports for all of us

I feel like a steady state has been reached.
The steady state should allow me to work more on my projects that are paused as long as necessary until the rest of the crew can work efficiently.
