International Space Center's Toilet Broken

Did folks hear about this?? Can you imagine NOT being able to go to the bathroom up in Space? Lucky for the astronauts on the space station, there is a "backup" system. *smile*

Discovery is scheduled to deliver part of a Japanese lab, as well as much-needed toilet repair parts.

I saw this on the news yesterday. They are using bags for the waste and then putting all the bags in a designated area... gross

WOW! I guess when your mind is so much occupied with your objective, smaller things get pushed aside or forgotten......

Ewwww, they will need tons of air fresheners and sanitizers. Who knows if they even have any of that with them. I do not envy them at the moment.
