That's alright, I'd rather die of thirst. Thanks anyway. Astronauts Drink
Recycled Urine Water Updated: Thursday, 21 May 2009, 1:31 PM CDT Published : Thursday, 21 May 2009, 10:17 AM CDT By FRANK CARNEVALE (MYFOX NATIONAL) - Astronauts on the International Space Station toasted the successful testing of the wastewater recycling system with a drink of recycled urine water. Experts believe such recycling systems are important as we deal with water shortages here on Earth and dream of a space voyage to Mars. On Wednesday U.S. astronaut Michael Barratt appeared on NASA TV with crewmate Koichi Wakata, a Japanese astronaut, and station commander Gennady Padalka, a Russian cosmonaut, to toast the new system. "This has been the stuff of science fiction. Everybody's talked about recycling water in a closed loop system, but nobody's ever done it before. Here we are today with the first round of recycled water," Barratt said . According to Space.com , the water recycling system cost about $250 million and will be used daily to recycle urine and wastewater back into potable water suitable for drinking, food preparation, bathing and oxygen generation. And LiveScience points out that this system and technology could be used here on Earth. The California Department of Water Resources is pondering mobile desalination units to use in droughts and emergencies. | |
