In #SpaceToilets 🚽, fans are there to pull waste into the toilet, preventing it from drifting into the cabin. #NASA confirmed that there was a problem with the toilet fan on the #Orion spacecraft which meant that while astronauts could still poop in the toilet, they couldn’t pee in it https://www.astronomy.com/space-exploration/artemis-2-crew-fixes-toilet-can-now-pee-in-it/

Artemis 2 crew fixes toilet, can now pee in it

Artemis 2's toilet was out of commission for the mission's first six hours but was successfully fixed — to the relief of the crew.

Even space toilets in the future will have a hard time handling Taco Bell.

Whether you are on a #diet or just want to be healthier, you might be one of those millions of people around the planet who use a mobile #app to track everything you eat. The trend has arrived in space: European astronauts are now logging their meals on a tablet to make sure they are getting the right amount of nutrients. #EveryWear http://www.esa.int/Our_Activities/Human_Spaceflight/Astronauts/Diet_tracker_in_space #Astronauts #ISS #UmbertoGuidoni #Raffaello #Destinylaboratory #multi-purposepressurisedlogisticsmodule #MPLM #ClaudieHaigneré #Andromedamission #HowdoIbecomeanastronaut #microgravity #zerogravity #health #vestibularysystem #SpaceAdaptationSyndrome #bones #psychology #exercise #lawsofmotion #cosmonauts #spacetoilets #Jean-FrancoisClervoy #FrankdeWinne #PedroDuque #LeopoldEyharts #ReinholdEwald #ChristerFuglesang #AndréKuipers #PaoloNespoli #ClaudeNicollier #ThomasReiter #HansSchlegel #GerhardThiele #MichelTognini #RobertoVittori #EuropeanAstronautCorp #EAC #EuropeanAstronautCentre #astronauttraining #candidateselection #astronautsupport #AstronautDivision #AstronautTrainingDivision #MedicalCrewSupportOffice #trainingfacilities

ESA astronauts Samantha Cristoforetti and Matthias Maurer joined 16 Chinese astronauts earlier this month for nine days of sea survival training off China’s coastal city of #Yantai. The ultimate goal is for ESA to establish long term cooperation with China and for an ESA astronaut to fly on China’s space station. http://www.esa.int/Our_Activities/Human_Spaceflight/Astronauts/ESA_and_Chinese_astronauts_train_together #Astronauts #ISS #UmbertoGuidoni #Raffaello #Destinylaboratory #multi-purposepressurisedlogisticsmodule #MPLM #ClaudieHaigneré #Andromedamission #HowdoIbecomeanastronaut #microgravity #zerogravity #health #vestibularysystem #SpaceAdaptationSyndrome #bones #psychology #exercise #lawsofmotion #cosmonauts #spacetoilets #Jean-FrancoisClervoy #FrankdeWinne #PedroDuque #LeopoldEyharts #ReinholdEwald #ChristerFuglesang #AndréKuipers #PaoloNespoli #ClaudeNicollier #ThomasReiter #HansSchlegel #GerhardThiele #MichelTognini #RobertoVittori #EuropeanAstronautCorp #EAC #EuropeanAstronautCentre #astronauttraining #candidateselection #astronautsupport #AstronautDivision #AstronautTrainingDivision #MedicalCrewSupportOffice #trainingfacilities

During a simulated space mission underwater last week, ESA tested an ingenious concept to bring astronauts safely back to base if they are incapacitated during #lunar exploration. The Lunar Evacuation System Assembly allows for quick recovery of a #Moonwalker while keeping the limited mobility of a spacesuit in mind. A foldable pyramid-like structure on wheels opens above the astronaut, it lifts the incapacitated figure using pulleys and places it on a wheeled stretcher. http://www.esa.int/Our_Activities/Human_Spaceflight/Astronauts/How_to_rescue_a_Moonwalker_in_need #Astronauts #ISS #UmbertoGuidoni #Raffaello #Destinylaboratory #multi-purposepressurisedlogisticsmodule #MPLM #ClaudieHaigneré #Andromedamission #HowdoIbecomeanastronaut #microgravity #zerogravity #health #vestibularysystem #SpaceAdaptationSyndrome #bones #psychology #exercise #lawsofmotion #cosmonauts #spacetoilets #Jean-FrancoisClervoy #FrankdeWinne #PedroDuque #LeopoldEyharts #ReinholdEwald #ChristerFuglesang #AndréKuipers #PaoloNespoli #ClaudeNicollier #ThomasReiter #HansSchlegel #GerhardThiele #MichelTognini #RobertoVittori #EuropeanAstronautCorp #EAC #EuropeanAstronautCentre #astronauttraining #candidateselection #astronautsupport #AstronautDivision #AstronautTrainingDivision #MedicalCrewSupportOffice #trainingfacilities

ESA astronaut Alexander Gerst is returning to the International Space Station next year and today he revealed his mission name and logo: Horizons.

Alexander is the first of ESA’s class of 2009 astronauts who will be sent into space for a second time, launching on Soyuz MS-09 together with NASA astronaut Jeanette Epps and Russian spacecraft commander Sergei Prokopyev in May 2018. His first mission, Blue Dot, in 2014, lasted from May to November 2014. http://www.esa.int/Our_Activities/Human_Spaceflight/Astronauts/New_Horizons_for_Alexander_Gerst #Astronauts #ISS #UmbertoGuidoni #Raffaello #Destinylaboratory #multi-purposepressurisedlogisticsmodule #MPLM #ClaudieHaigneré #Andromedamission #HowdoIbecomeanastronaut #microgravity #zerogravity #health #vestibularysystem #SpaceAdaptationSyndrome #bones #psychology #exercise #lawsofmotion #cosmonauts #spacetoilets #Jean-FrancoisClervoy #FrankdeWinne #PedroDuque #LeopoldEyharts #ReinholdEwald #ChristerFuglesang #AndréKuipers #PaoloNespoli #ClaudeNicollier #ThomasReiter #HansSchlegel #GerhardThiele #MichelTognini #RobertoVittori #EuropeanAstronautCorp #EAC #EuropeanAstronautCentre #astronauttraining #candidateselection #astronautsupport #AstronautDivision #AstronautTrainingDivision #MedicalCrewSupportOffice #trainingfacilities
