Dang it, Yuri, Clean up your room!!! (ISS content)

Pretty cool recent tour of the International Space Station for us geeks. These guys have nerves of steel. I would be dying of anxiety that something would go wrong and we would die a slow, painful and lonely death. Pretty dang cramped moving around, but pretty cool to have use of both walls floor and ceiling to setup gear! The window views are amazing, and the russian module is a MESS. How about those "living quarters", huh?

They recycle their urine!!! It's distilled and turned into pure 'drinking' water and also used to generate oxigen on board. Pretty cool!

is it me or do you imagine they use the 'urine funnel' for 'other more dubious purposes'?

I actually will say this.... that video was pretty interesting and astronomy has always fascinated me.

Not sure if I'd want to live in space for months at a time, but I always wondered.... what would it look like after "doing the deed"?.... a Jackson Pollock splatter painting?

I think the recycling is more comprehensive than that.

Think Soylent Green.
