Massimino: You always get these questions when you go to speak to schools, you know,
what- what do you- how do you live in space?
How do you sleep?
How do you eat ,and the most popular question of all time- guess what it is.<p begin="00:00:42.233"
end="00:00:45.566">Scott Weinstein: Probably how to go to the bathroom.<p begin="00:00:43.300"
end="00:00:51.600">MM: How do you go to the bathroom in space?
We're going to find that out today here with- with Scott is going to tell us.
Right?
Okay.SW: Okay.SW:
Figure out what we are doing.Steve Bowen: You want to
explain what that is?MM: : Yeah.
Do you guys have any- yeah.
If you don't mind then, yeah.
Do the whole thing.SB: Well, that's- do you
want me to explain the practice part of this?MM:
Yes.
There's the real- we have the real toilet.SB:
Right.
Which they've used.MM: And then we have the
practice toilet.SB: : And we have the practice
toilet.
MM: Scott, were you going to get to that or are
you going to- what are you going to do?
SB: Yeah.
Here, Scott.
[INAUDIBLE]SW: You know, I would normally skim it during
the refresher but if you want to cover it.SB:
You have to cover it.
MM: Let's cover it.
You want to cover it now or do you want to-SW:
No.
I'll do it now.MM: Alright.
Go ahead.
Do it now, Scott.SW: Now, it's particularly
based on what you just said-MM: Right.<p begin="00:01:14.900"
end="00:01:22.333">SW: Because that is our functional trainer.
That one can be used-MM: This one over here?<p
begin="00:01:20.866" end="00:01:26.300">SW: That's right.
That's where we're going to spend most of our time because that one can be used.<p
begin="00:01:24.300" end="00:01:27.433">MM: And you guys are going to use that?<p
begin="00:01:26.200" end="00:01:29.033">Piers Sellers: We could use that.<p begin="00:01:26.600"
end="00:01:29.966">MM: You could use it before-SB:
We could use it.
Not going to use it today.MM: So you know- no.
No, no, no, no, no.SW: We'll do it in this
one, I'm going to be upset with you.MM:
No.
You don't want to do it in that one because why?SW:
This- this is our positional trainer.
So, you can see there's a TV monitor here-MM:
There's a TV monitor there.SW: There's a camera inside
the hole.MM: That's correct.<p begin="00:01:41.700"
end="00:01:45.466">SW: You'll notice the hole here is four inches.<p begin="00:01:43.833"
end="00:01:47.033">MM: The hole is four inches?SW:
Where as a normal toilet seat is more like twelve or eighteen inches.<p begin="00:01:48.666"
end="00:01:52.266">MM: What's a normal- you mean like the one you have at your house?<p
begin="00:01:50.366" end="00:01:52.900">SW: That's right.MM:
Alright.SW: Alignment is important.<p begin="00:01:58.866"
end="00:02:01.166">MM: Right.SW: So the benefit of this
is if they're not confident that they have good alignment they can come turn on the camera-<p
begin="00:02:06.466" end="00:02:09.233">MM: Right.SW:
Or they can turn the camera off, find their alignment on the seat-<p begin="00:02:09.433"
end="00:02:12.266">MM: Right.SW: Flip the camera on
and see if they've-MM: And see over here you
can see right in the monitor- and you can sit down on that thing and look over here
and check your alignment.MM: Now, this is one- what
did you say?
This is like the deepest, darkest secret about space flight?MM:
People always ask you, "Oh, what about UFO's and aliens?" And we got nothing
for them, but they don't know about this.
That we actually have a- what's the official title?SW:
You see the Hubble guys [INAUDIBLE].SB:
Positioning trainer.MM: Positioning- positioning
trainer.MM: And now you're going to go over the high fidelity
trainer.SW: Alright.
By and large, especially with more experienced crews, they've been there, done it.
They just want a refresher on how to use the system so.MM:
Right.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.PS: Here we go.
Activation.
We're there.
Foot toe restraints down and locked.
So, that's right here.MM: So, this is just to
support your feet while you're sitting on the-MM:
On the potty.SW: Right.MM:
You have your feet right- support your feet.SW:
That's right.SW: When you use the commode you can put your
feet or the toe restraints down at the bottom if you're just floating there-<p begin="00:03:02.066"
end="00:03:04.733">MM: Right.SW: And it made it easier.
PS: Right.
Vacuum valve open and here we go.
Alright.
Ready?SB: There it goes.<p begin="00:03:08.966"
end="00:03:11.733">PS: Sounds good.SB:
Unstow urinal hose from Velcro strap.
Install hose in cradle.MM: Okay.
So, so far we've talked about your positioning and that was for number two.
When you go number- when you go number one you have that- you have that hose there.<p
begin="00:03:19.133" end="00:03:21.666">SB: Well, that's what the-<p begin="00:03:20.900"
end="00:03:24.266">SB: Yeah, but you also have the toe strap.<p begin="00:03:22.866"
end="00:03:29.600">MM: The toe strap.
That's what you- to hold you while you're using- while you're going number one into
the hose.SW: Solid- solid waste and liquid waste go two
different places.SB: Check cradle's in auto.
Check mode is auto.PS: Check mode is auto.<p
begin="00:03:35.000" end="00:03:38.766">SB: Fan step select.
Switch to one.PS: Okay.
Fan switch to one.
There it goes.
Press it [INAUDIBLE].SB: Unstow hose from cradle
and check for air play.PS: Good.
It's working.
It's sucking.MM: Good.SB:
Okay.
Check WCS on light on.PS: Yep.<p begin="00:03:52.366"
end="00:03:54.933">SB: See.PS: Stow the hose in the
barrel.PS: And-PS:
On there and this goes right here and then we put a little baggie [sic] in there.
Trash bag.MM: Alright.PS:
This little baggie [sic]- the air can suction the bottom of this so that whatever you throw
in here sort of gets sucked down into the bottom of the bag.<p begin="00:04:18.933"
end="00:04:22.266">SB: It's called the hydro-MM:
Yeah.
SB: Hydrophobic.MM:
Yeah.MM: And we put that bag in there.
That's where your toilet paper is going to go.PS:
Toilet paper, hand- hand wipes any trash.SW:
That's right.MM: Because you know- hand wipes.
You don't put any paper in the bowl.SW:
No.PS: No.MM:
Only solid waste in the bowl and all your paper and hand wipe stuff goes in there.<p
begin="00:04:37.400" end="00:04:41.866">MM: And then you- when you're done you tie that
up, throw that away and put it in.PS: Don't do that.
That's right.SB: Elbow bag?
PS: Elbow bag.
Let's see.SW: Steve already pointed it out, you guys are
flying all male funnels?SB: Yes.<p begin="00:04:46.666"
end="00:04:49.666">SW: But for the sake-MM:
Because they're all guys.SW: For the sake of observation
here, male funnels don't have any venting.
Steve already mentioned the whole unit works on air.
Female crew members have three choices for their anatomy based funnel choices and they're
all vented.SW: The difference is for women we want their
anatomy against the funnel but we still need the air flow.
For men, we do not want them docking to the funnel.SW:
To that end also if you're urinating and the funnel's filling with water you need to slow
down because we don't want to flood the fan separator.SW:
Do you guys use- did you guys use the thigh restraints at all or just- just wedge yourself
in here?PS: I would stick my hand on the roof.<p begin="00:05:25.333"
end="00:05:27.666">SB: Roof.SW: Alright.
These are- these are thigh restraints.SB:
They were helpful for getting in and out, actually.SW:
As handles?SB: Just as handles.<p begin="00:05:34.133"
end="00:05:36.633">MM: You really didn't use them?MM:
You didn't use them?
SB: No.SW:
I just used the roof.MM: Yeah, but I used the
thigh- I think I used the thigh restraints.PS:
I- what I do is I sit where I'm comfortable and I scooch [sic].<p begin="00:05:43.033"
end="00:05:45.633">SB: Cowboy.
Yep.MM: Yeah.PS:
That's right.MM: You know, I- I- you know what I think of?
I think of Peter Fonda in Easy Rider riding a chopper.MM:
Yes.
I thought I was riding a chopper and that's the right position for me.<p begin="00:05:54.233"
end="00:05:57.600">PS: You would have made a marvelous astronaut.<p begin="00:05:56.733"
end="00:06:00.066">MM: I would have but it's too late now.SB:
He would have.PS: That's right.<p
begin="00:05:59.400" end="00:06:02.500">SW: And that's the benefit of the-<p begin="00:06:00.333"
end="00:06:06.066">MM: My- my opportunity ended and it didn't turn out marvelous and
now it's too late.SW: It turned out marvelous.
That's the benefit of the mirrors is if you don't- if you can't tell if something's attached
to you, you can look in the mirror.SW:
If this breaks Volume G where your spare odor and bacteria filter are, you know, it's underneath
your [INAUDIBLE] locker so you have to remove lockers to get to these things.<p begin="00:06:19.966"
end="00:06:28.100">SW: You fly adult diapers.
Those are standard compliment.
Technically they're for women, but since you don't have any on your flight feel free to
use them if you have to.SW: This is an Apollo fecal
bag and you have a finger cup for wiping.
It is a- an adhesive attachment.PS: I have a feeling I
could get some of the DC vac in that thing.
I could make that work.
What do you think?SW: Okay.
Any questions?
you guys have done this before.
So, simple reminders: keep it clean, alignment's your friend, solid waste in the commode, urine
goes down the tube, nothing else-SW: If you want to come
over here the reminders are on the wall.
We do leave this in a configuration especially once you're in quarantine that all you have
to do is come over and turn on the fan set which you would do because you're following
the procedures.SB: Right.<p begin="00:07:09.066"
end="00:07:15.000">SW: There is a chance for it to be out of config [sic].
This is a very popular room with tours so-MM:
Right.SW: What we usually start the class with is- that
door has a dead bolt.
It has a cipher lock.
It has a sign that says "Training in progress" and they ignore it every time.<p
begin="00:07:21.666" end="00:07:31.666">SW: So, if you're going to come in here even if
you're just doing a scene next door and you're going to come in here to use this toilet use
the dead bolt or you're going to have somebody's home video with you in it.<p begin="00:07:31.066"
end="00:07:33.566">SW: Happens all the time.SB:
Like this.
