Badlands Bob #61228 Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 That must be one of those "special accommodations" they are always talking about, but never putting a price tag on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozark Huckleberry Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Probably the cost for the government to put a latch on the door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cypress Sun Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 The toilet only costs one million. The rest was spent on an automatic device to put the seat down after men use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 $32 mill is peanuts compared to what was spent on the male oriented toilets over the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat Riot Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 So much of what has been discovered, designed and utilized in the Space Program has actually been useful in everyday life, like food packaging, water filters, etc. Check these out. https://www.businessinsider.com/everyday-items-developed-by-nasa-2012-8 https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/infographics/infographic.view.php?id=11358 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Velcro is cool too, but NASA simply popularized an existing product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chili Ron Posted October 5, 2020 Author Share Posted October 5, 2020 Howdy, Now I did assume that men couldnt use it. That could be wrong. But I was already wrong for this year. Best CR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 We’ve come a long way from when Alan Shepard was told to “just pee in your suit” because he had drunk too much coffee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my college engineering statistics questions was to figure out the odds of breathing in a molecule of 02 that had been breathed in by Ceaser. having figured it out, I then generalized the solution for Genghis Khan, Cleopatra, and a few other notable historical figures. I did not, however, calculate if I ever drank any of their pee. It wasn't asked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
