Astronauts were asked to use spacesuits as a toilet

by time news

Crew Dragon crew will not be able to use the toilet. This decision was made by experts from NASA and SpaceX. Harsh measures were taken after a urine leak was discovered on the ship. American astronauts who are on the ISS were asked to study “other ways to remove fluids from the body.” It is reported by Russia Today.

In particular, Shane Kimbrow, Megan MacArthur, Akihiko Hoshida and Thomas Peske were reminded that special linings were sewn into the astronauts’ spacesuits. And the flight home does not last very long.

The breakdown of a toilet on a spacecraft was discovered during the flight of American billionaire Jared Isaacman. He and three space tourists spent three days in orbit. Upon their return to Earth, the technicians discovered that a part had somehow become detached in the waste tank during the flight. Urine has leaked into the ventilation system. Now the problem has been eliminated on those ships that are on Earth. With the one docked to the ISS, there is still work to be done.
