Space Toilet
Whilst in space, the two crew members tested a new piece of Chinese space technology – an 'excrement collecting facility' or space toilet. The previous manned mission, Shenzhou 5, did not have this facility. Curiously, news reports during the next manned Chinese mission, Shenzhou 7, said that Shenzhou 7 was the first Chinese manned mission to have a space toilet.

Famous quotes containing the words space and/or toilet:
“Time in his little cinema of the heart
Giving a première to Hate and Pain;
And Space urbanely keeping us apart.”

and the chimney falls down like a drunk
and the dog chews her tail off
and the kitchen blows up its shiny kettle
and the vacuum cleaner swallows its bag
and the toilet washes itself in tears ...”
