Fecal bag description begins at minute 2:00.
Some of us still use them. WAG bag. Plz don’t leave poop in my wilderness.
Fun fact!
One of those “fecal specimens” escaped containment during the Apollo 10 lunar flyby and floated around the crew module. The event would forever be immortalized in the mission’s radio transcripts:
Cernan: “Where did that come from?”
Stafford: “Get me a napkin quick. There’s a turd floating through the air.”
Young: “I didn’t do it. It ain’t one of mine.”
Cernan: “I don’t think it’s one of mine.”
Stafford: “Mine was a little more sticky than that. Throw that away.”
Young: “God Almighty”
If ever there was an EWW moment, this is it.
Worst. stress ball. ever.
I don’t know. It’s soft and warm.
Did they have a hundred bags?
Some of those bags are still on the moon today, in the lockers on the descent stages where they were left.
Is this the design from the guy in The Big Bang Theory show?
lol. Perhaps they used meatloaf to test it.
Spend tens of billions.
Poop in a bag.
Poop in a space bag.
And that bag cost tens of thousands of dollars to design!
When you add up people’s time to design and test, absolutely. Could have crossed $100,000 and it would be a teaspnable cost. Wouldn’t want to half ass a space poop bag.
This how it works in any business, R&D is high but businesses tend to spead that cost out per item when massproducted. One off or limited uses are always far more than mass production.
Frank Sinatra never said anything about pooping in a bag! This is outrageous!
Fly me to the moon, let me play among the stars
Then poop in a bag out there by Jupiter and Mars
In other words, please be true
In other words, massage your poo.
Did the video tell you about the diet the Astronauts had to eat prior to and while on the mission?
The engineering that NASA did and still does really is amazing.
