After a successful trip around the Moon, everything has been going smoothly on the Orion spacecraft’s journey back to Earth – except for the $23 million toilet, which has gotten clogged. The system designed to flush wastewater into space is malfunctioning, and Nasa believes that a chemical reaction in the urine treatment system is the culprit.The toilet problem was reported just hours after liftoff from Cape Canaveral, Florida. Koch adjusted the system’s controls, restarted them with the help of mission control, and that appeared to resolve the issue.The toilet on board Orion is similar to the one on the International Space Station, but this is the first time it has been used on a crewed deep-space mission. What is your take on the issue while on the moon trip ?
