In short: Tissues of various sizes which can then be hanged somewhere and evaporate the water.
- ryalfalpha 14y agoToday I learned the ISS has baby-wipes aboard it.
- belorn 14y agoI was really suprised to see them in the original package. One would think they had applied some form of vacuum sealed pressured bag or something to minimize space, or had special designed wipes with material that’s light weight. I guess not everything up there is special space stuff. Some of it is just the same stuff as in the local Grocery store.
- drharris 14y agoOnce you have the experience of trying to get a baby wipe out at 3am while a baby is crying, you'll realize they already come pretty close to vacuum sealed. :)
- ChrisClark 14y agoNot just crying but legs kicking and hands trying to grab their own poo while you try and open a bag of wipes. I think you need 5 arms to handle that situation.
- drharris 14y agoHaha. It's recently gotten worse at nearly 3yo, because he's much stronger and thinks playing with poo is funny. I've mastered the art of several wrestling holds, could probably go pro.
- bhaile 14y agoHaha. I think a blog article on this would be helpful to me. :) Still learning on holds/wipes/cleaning and how to maximize my two hands.
- drharris 14y agoUnfortunately I don't think this knowledge is transferable! I recently changed a friend's toddler, and nothing worked. She was a kicker, where my son tends to twist his legs around to gain leverage and flip over. I think it's all stuff you figure out by trial, error, error, and more error.
- Cthulhu_ 14y agoReminds me of that famous anecdote where NASA invested a million in developing a pen that could write in zero G, while the Russians used a pencil.
- andrewflnr 14y agoApparently, graphite shavings in air filters are bad news. One has to wonder if nice mechanical pencils would be too bad, though.
- jcl 14y agoA fictional anecdote, FWIW: http://www.snopes.com/business/genius/spacepen.asp http://www.snopes.com/business/genius/spacepen.asp
- ufmace 14y agoInteresting... I was just wondering that after seeing the first video - yeah, that's cool, but what are they going to do now with a soaking washcloth and drops of water floating around all over the place?
