Recent tests have shown that CATHODE voltage breaks down at ~130V, continually leaking current and progressively dropping voltage, making febiad CATHODE
testing impossible.

Opened the ATTS, placed what I will call “Cast Alumina Sample #1” into the ATTS and activated the roughing then turbo pumps. Currently sample
is in slow heating progress to 1000 degrees Celsius, process is expected to take some time, so I'll revisit after lunch.
