Mum's note:
Today we moved on from Cooma to Murrumbateman. We are hoping for some warmer nights! It has been nearly -6
ยบC the last two nights! Brrrrrrrr.
At the Deep Space Communication Complex we also found out that there really is a planet with two suns (similar to the fictitious planet of Tatooine), saw food that astronauts eat
 |
| Mmmm. Yummy space food. Just add water. |
and an explanation of what happens to human waste during space travel. Apparently this is the single most common question asked about space travel! So, if you don't want to know, look away now......
Tip #1: Don't eat space ice...... Liquid waste is flushed straight out to space where it freezes instantly.
Tip #2: Don't look in returned luggage..... solid waste is bagged and returned to earth. The details are nasty.
Now you don't have to pester those poor astronauts with that question.
Well I'll be passing on the yellow moon rocks from now on thanks.
ReplyDeleteDo you know why there is a tablet on the front of most of the space food packets? Is it part of the meal or something like a vitamin supplement?
Hi Uncle Paul. We have no idea. I don't remember there being any explanation about the tablets. xxx Mummy.
