[S-MODE] [EXTERNAL] Mission Readiness Review and starting fieldwork

[J. Tom Farrar]

Dear all,

I am happy to announce that S-MODE passed it's Mission Readiness Review 
with NASA HQ and is cleared to proceed with fieldwork. Erin Czech did a 
great job with the presentation, and with the harder work of shepherding 
the project through to sound communication, logistics, and safety plans.

As we begin the fieldwork, I want to emphasize two things to all of the 
people involved with it:
(1)  Anyone involved has the authority to stop everything if they feel 
the situation is unsafe.  If you have safety concerns, please call 
"Stop!" so that they can be addressed.
(2) Intimidation, harassment, or discrimination will not be tolerated.  
Unfortunately, it occurs too often in fieldwork situations.  If you find 
yourself in a situation that makes you uncomfortable, or see someone 
else in that situation, you have several options.  First, you may 
address it in the moment if you feel you can.  Then, please report the 
incident to me, to any of the Deputy PIs (Ernesto Rodriguez, Eric 
D'Asaro, Andrey Shcherbina), to Erin Czech, or to your direct 
supervisor.  We will work with you to ensure the situation is addressed.


Thank you,
Tom
