Fun fact 1: On the ISS people get constipated a lot because without gravity the time-to-poop receptors don’t get tickled enough and when they finally do it’s too late for it to come out easily so again without the help of gravity they have to resort to rooting around in there to remove the dookie pebbles manually. There are gloves provided to astronauts for that specific purpose.
Fun fact 2: This act is much easier to perform for women because they can use the glove from the front. Also no prostate in the way.
This is one of those things that must have been an absolute shit thing to discover the first time. Sure now we are ready and can prepare. But having to diagnose and improvise a solution would not be pleasant.
Let me reiterate. They use rubber gloves to extract caca nuggets out of their own ass. I don’t think the astronauts would consider this a solved problem 😅

Well, yeah, I think that’s been established.

That why you need to bring your poop knife with you to space.
Never leave home without it
Oof, I thought it was only constipated mathematicians that had to work it out with a pencil.
