ISS astronauts fix broken toilet
Nasa avoided a rather messy situation in space Monday after giving astronauts aboard the International Space Station the green light to use a toilet after crew members worked for a day to repair it.
"The US Destiny lab toilet has been repaired and checked out. The crew has been given a "go" to use it. All three toilets are working," Nasa said in a post to the micro-blogging website Twitter.
The toilet malfunction on Sunday came just days after the seven-person crew aboard the space shuttle Endeavour arrived at the space station, bringing the total number of people on the ISS to a record 13.
