The problem here is that there is no water in a shuttle. You must first use a water bag to wet the toothbrush, but the most annoying part is rinsing the mouth. No sink, there is only one solution: swallow toothpaste!

The first step is to spread the water using a water bag with pipe on the scalp, and then drag the water to the ends of hair using hands. Same thing with the shampoo. Then you have to use a comb to clean the hair. The water which escapes into the air is recovered by a vent which is then recycled as a drinking water.

The bread is forbidden in space because of the crumbs that would cause big problems seeping everywhere. The tortilla is the substitute.

How Astronaut does the exercise?

This is the most important activity in space after sleeping and eating, because in the absence of graving we may loose muscle and bone mass. To do exercise without gravity, weight machines are solidly placed on the walls and it is necessary to properly attach the traps while doing the exercises.

It is very interesting to see how these astronauts live in space without gravity. We can not help but smile at the man washing the skull and we had a lot of compassion for anyone who has a little bit of peanut butter to eat. However, all these facts were not enough to dissuade those who want to explore space. Would you like to experience all this in a space shuttle?
