NASA Sent a New $23 Million Space Toilet to the International Space Station

 

NASA  Sent at the end of 2020 a brand new $23 Million Space Toilet to the International Space Station. There are two pictures of the new toilet. 



"The toilet, known as the Universal Waste Management System, arrived at the International Space Station on October 5 as part of a cargo resupply shipment. NASA astronaut Chris Cassidy and his Russian colleagues, Ivan Wagner and Anatoly Ivanishin, are in the process of unpacking the cargo ship, and plan to install the toilet very soon.
Very interesting article in The Smithsonian Magazine.
