Do You Want To Know - What Happens To Astronaut Poop

I was reading that the Space X ship was launched today with 1000 lb. of supplies for the space station and I got to thinking, what happens to the poop the astronauts make from these supplies. You never hear about the space shuttle returning to earth with a 1000 lb. load of poop. Liquids, of course, are recycled but solids - I didn't know.

So, I googled it and here is the disgusting answer.

I always thought it got ejected into space right away. I didnt know they stored it for any amount of time.
How would you like to go out and clean that off your spaceship windshield? :D

I wonder if Obama has been storing his poop to sell to liberals.

Maybe they have it for sale on the Obama campaign website. 3 oz. of authentic Obama poop $39.95. :confused: :D

I'm sure liberals would eat that sh... up. YUK! (pun intended)
