Space X shuttles have trouble with toilets in space, Musk's company can't send more astronauts

Space X has some problems with its capsule toilets that it needs to sort out before launching another capsule with four astronauts.

The American company and NASA want to make sure that the leaking toilet will not endanger the capsule that will be launched on Sunday from the Kennedy Space Center, the Telegraph reports.

During Space X's first private flight last month, the pipe burst, causing urine to leak through the ventilators and under the floor, said William Gersteinmeyer, a Space X vice president who once worked for NASA. .


The same problem has recently been discovered inside the Dragon capsule on the space station, so at least William admitted to reporters on Monday night.

And as a long-term solution, Space X has welded the urine drain pipe inside the company's newest capsule, which the German-American crew has named Endurance.

As for the Dragon capsule in orbit, a quantity of urine believed to belong to the billionaire and three other people who recently completed a three-day flight was found under the floor tiles. /Telegraph/
