This Saturday I finally had more time to spend with the crew. I didn't have the opportunity to watch them during daytime for two weeks now.
2 weeks ago it was their best time, there was a tunneling frenzy. They managed to dig about ~1cm per hour. Now we stand by maybe 2mm per week? If at all...
In order to boost moral, I positioned ASH-1 close to the window, so as to get them more light then ever before. I did not dare to do that earlier for fear that the direct exposure to sunlight may do them more harm than good.
The thing I noticed was that a bunch of ants quickly relocated to the cave below the Vietcong in the Coruisk system, which - previously - was hardly visited by anyone.
It is time to give this den a proper name: I will call it Zacatón Den, in honour of Cenote Zagatón - the world's deepest sinkhole (so far).
