Orbiting Sump Pump Update

Filed under: in the news...

We are happy to announce that the Discovery space shuttle has docked with the international space station and brought urgently needed supplies to fix the most important medgadget on board, the toilet.

The shuttle crew also brought a spare toilet pump for the orbiting outpost. The space station's Russian-built toilet broke nearly two weeks ago -- forcing the crew to perform manual flushes with extra water several times a day -- and engineers hope the new pump will take care of the problem.
