Space Toilet Use for Astronauts

Astronauts cannot flush a toilet in space because water floats everywhere. Instead,

they use a special vacuum toilet that sucks everything down into a sealed container.

They have to strap themselves to the seat so they don't float away mid-business. Solid waste gets

compressed and stored, while urine is recycled into drinking water through an advanced filtration system.

The entire bathroom is smaller than a phone booth, and there's no privacy whatsoever.

Training for space toilet use is actually a mandatory part of astronaut preparation before launch.
