Konstantin Eduardovich Tsiolkovsky, who died OTD in 1935, is one of the founding fathers of modern rocketry and astronautics, although he never invented a space toilet https://toilet-guru.com/spacecraft/?s=mb #spaceflight #history

Toilets in Space

How do you go to the bathroom in space? With a Space Toilet, of course! You can see several at the National Air and Space Museum. All this and more on the Toilets of the World.

Found some inspiration to rework my corny space comics. Moon getting more attention for obvious reasons. Cool things I didn't know before (feel free to correct me if wrong):

  • not just shades of grey. Orange soil. Neat.
  • all of those flags being random corner store buys
  • radiation decay not bleaching them, but darkening them beyond recognition. (Probably disintegrated already, too. So Sad. Anyway.)
  • it's exactly two golf balls. Resources well spent, I guess. 🙄
