Well, You Know **[Hackaday](https://daily.dev/sources/hackaday)** · 3 min read · 1 upvotes · 0 comments ## Summary NASA's Artemis II mission (aboard the Orion capsule Integrity) is experiencing a burning smell from the Universal Waste Management System (UWMS) space toilet. The piece uses this as a jumping-off point to trace the history of human waste management in space, from Apollo-era adhesive bags and Alan Shepard's infamous suit incident, through Skylab and the Space Shuttle, to the modern UWMS introduced in 2020 on the ISS. The UWMS improved usability for female astronauts and added a door for privacy. The cause of the burning smell remains unknown. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
