The main toilet has broken down on the International Space Station (ISS), currently home to a record 13 astronauts, Nasa said.


Mission Control told the crew to hang an "out of service" sign until the toilet can be fixed.


No more Mexican food in space until further notice.

And, in related news, on the NYSE, the price of stock in "Baggies" just skyrocketed.

:mrgreen:

Article is here.
 
That's a crappy situation.
 
Wait...isn't that the Colbert?

Oh thats the treadmill - carry on...
 
Oh crap....Does that mean space dumps thru a tube?

Future meteortoids?
 
Probably the result of cost cutting efforts....too much desire to eliminate waste....
 
Imagine the damage a metortoid can do traveling at 17,000 mph...Scarey....

Let's hope they don't have to take a space dump.
 
I thought they drank the pee anyway?
 
There are two toilets aboard the ISS. Only one is broken.
