I guess they meant getting the drinking water to the space station in the first place. Water doesn't really compress well (unlike the hockey puck rag) and also weighs quite a bit so sending it up should be pretty costly.
- akadruid1 14y agovery roughly, water is $50 million per tonne on the ATV, so (even more approx) $30,000 for the water used in the video.
