Life in space – level 2

01-08-2023 15:00

A British astronaut films videos in space. He recently showed us how astronauts make coffee, and now, how they use the toilet.

Space toilets must have fans. You turn the fan on, you pee in a tube, and the pee goes down the tube. If you forget to turn on the fan, the pee flies around!

Difficult words: fan (a thing which moves air), pee (to let out the yellowish “water” out of your body), tube (a thin, long thing with space in the middle).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.

What other everyday activities do astronauts have to modify in space?
