I think I read the place is just full of bacteria and fecal matter. The largest complaint about prolonged space travel is no shower.

NASA astronaut Scott Kelly has revealed the ISS smells like jail, citing the similarities in their 'combinations of antiseptic, garbage, and body odor. ' 'I was touring the Harris County Jail, and there's this room that smells like space station - combination of antiseptic, garbage, and body odor,' he said.

I did an event where Mark Kelly was speaking at. He talked briefly about it and said it's one of the things they don't talk about much. He said it's like an old gym. He said one time they had a bunch of mold growing on a wall and NASA couldn't figure out how to get rid of it. The whole wall was covered with it.

It smells terrible, but Mir smelled worse.
They actually feared for astronaut/cosmonaut safety from the air quality of mir towards the end. |

Gonna smell like some BO... Gotta remember no one can really take a true shower.
But when a capsule docks and opens the hatch they aren't gonna smell it. Air has to be pushed in microgravity. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: US astronauts drink recycled urine aboard space station but Russians refuse https://www.theguardian.com/science/2015/aug/26/us-astronauts-recycled-urine-international-space-station So presumably the Russians drink fresh water that they send up and then they piss it out and then Americans drink it? At least we can send astronauts up in our own rockets and hopefully at some point soon they will be able to take a drink of water that hasn’t come from a Russian dick. |

@Domnior
He was on two shuttle launches. So they wear a diaper for launches and it takes several hours before they take off, if there are delays. Sometimes if you have to shit or piss you go in your diaper while laying on your back. Then on the ISS when they first get in the station is smells like ass mixed with BO for awhile until your nose gets used to it. For taking dumps, they shit into this plastic bag that has suction added to it because of Zero G. You squat over this bag and when you're done you use either your gloved hand or a pair of specially engineered poop scissors to cut your log. Then you wipe yourself down with wet wipes and pack it all up. He said pissing is tricky because you have this personal nozzle thing that has a hose with suction that you hold up against yourself to piss in but you have to be careful because you can have piss bubbles floating around which you try to suction up. For showers they use wetwipes and dry shampoo on their hair. He also did 2 or 3 spacewalks which he said was probably some of the most amazing experiences he has ever had. |

Don't they ever purge the air? Like put everyone in space suits one day, de-pressurize the station slowly until there is no air left, then re-pressurize with some tanks that they send up with another rocket.
Problem solved, for a little while at least |

That sounds like apollo bags, i believe the space shuttle did have more of a toilet as does the iss. They keep the appollo bags for backup |

Very interesting design, which I guess is where the “macerator” toilets got their inspiration from |
