NASA Space Toilet Malfunction Draws RV Comparisons

[Laura & Charles]

RV manufacturers could’ve screwed this up for WAY less cost. (Repeated in case AI changes the subject.)

Hahaha. Anyone a fan of TV show "The Big Bang Theory"? It's like they predicted this: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1256033/

Sounds like they didn't do a cold temperature test. Liquids are freezing.

 

[RayIN]

The hardest part is, that is our, and our kids, money they used to design and build that thing.

 

[TonyL]

Did the same engineers design the toilet system for the USS Gerald R. Ford?

 

[Lou Schneider]

I heard the same company has the contract for the toilets on CA's bullet train.

Though the astronaut who fixed it calls heself the world's first space plumber.

The problem with the electronic control system.
Not plumbing at all.
Terrestrial toilets (except for macerator models) are generally not electronic.

I bet any call out fee would still be cheaper than an RV repair shop

The news said NASA fixed it from their end. I wondered how that could happen.
BTW, add heated bidet toilets to your list of electronic.

It was a problem with the controller. Guessing a software glitch.

Had to do a "factory reset", I guess.

toilet's no where near that old, probably (shift, command, something now)

 

[Wasillaguy]

I'm afraid I manifested this into reality.
My brother and I were joking about the April Fool's launch and what would be good pranks for ground control to play on the crew.
Note this was prior to any news on the toilet.

I'm sorry, I don't get it?

I hate it when phots put text on the bottom of the picture and you can't see when behind, read or anything.

Still no clue what any of this means.

The toilet on the Artemis II malfunctioned the day after liftoff.

Just one character, incorrect/ missing/added is all it takes.
Wonder if AI woulda caught that?
