How do astronauts use the toilet?

Ms. Suni Williams introduced restrooms on the International Space Station (ISS).

Former commander of the International Space Station (ISS) Suni Williams spoke out about how astronauts use toilets in space.Because people working on ISS often spend months in space, proficient use of equipment of the smallest room in a weightless environment becomes essential.

Captain Williams, the record holder for the longest space flight for women (195 days), described in detail how the "urgent need" of humans at the outer space toilet .

The toilet in the space is basically shaped like similar devices on Earth. According to Ms. Williams, it also has two functions, serving urination and defecation, with different color-coded parts.

Toilet in the space is quite small and requires users to master the specifications.

Pointing to the defecation section, she said: "You can see, it's quite small and you have to be ready to make sure everything goes in its right direction." The female astronaut squeezed her nose and added: "It's a little smelly, so I'll have to close the lid immediately."

Toilet paper used on the ISS station is also provided according to preference. According to Ms Williams, American astronauts prefer soft types, while Russian colleagues prefer rough types.

All members of the ISS station are provided with gloves, tissues and disinfectants that "prevent anything beyond control" . Mrs. Williams warned, people often have trouble urinating "if not properly targeted" even though the toilet is designed to ensure "everything goes in the right direction".
