Everyone is

12 Years Old

I find it funny how there is the twelve year old in everyone that surfaces when certain topics are discussed. In spaceflight, humans continue to create waste just like on Earth. That has to be dealt with. I am editing a video where some engineers are talking about a urine processor on the International Space Station. All it takes is half a sentence bringing up the subject before all the jokes start going. Sometimes it will degrade to joking about the solid waste processing with the mention of smell in a craft where you cannot roll down a window.

Without this technology, humans cannot go very far in space travel, but still.... that twelve year old in all of us gets everyone laughing.
