The era of my country’s space station is coming! How should the three astronauts take a bath, and how should they protect their privacy?

The era of my country’s space station has come! Three astronauts are working and living in my country’s space station for a three-month mission. In these three months, how should the astronauts solve personal cleaning problems such as bathing, and how should they protect their privacy? How to take a shower in the space station? Before understanding how Chinese astronauts take a bath, let’s start with how the astronauts of the International Space Station take a bath. Samantha, a female astronaut on the International Space Station, once showed how to take a bath in the space station. Samantha said that taking a bath in space cannot be like on Earth, standing under the shower head to take a shower. Because in a microgravity environment, water does not flow downwards, but floats in the space station. When taking a shower in the space station, you can only wipe your body with a wet towel. When you want to wash your hair, squeeze water on the towel or the surface of your hair, and then moisten your hair. After that, the hair will be washed with a no-rinse shampoo, and then dried with a towel. Before the International Space Station, the US “Sky Lab” and the Soviet Union’s Mir space station had bathrooms. The bathroom is a cylindrical shower cover made of impermeable strong nylon cloth. After the cover is closed, the water cannot escape from the bathroom. It’s just that the astronauts must wear respirators, earplugs, and goggles before taking a bath to avoid suffocation. In the microgravity environment of space, water cannot flow downwards. Scientists pressurize the water in the tank to make the water flow out through the sprinkler. After the bath, the waste water will be recycled. Only because of the limited water storage in the space capsule, astronauts rarely enjoy the shower, and most of the time they still use wet towels to wipe their bodies. Although our astronauts cannot take a shower on the space station, they can “Wrapped shower room” Inside, hold the spray gun to wipe yourself clean. How do astronauts protect their privacy? How to protect privacy when bathing, going to the toilet, and sleeping on the space station? Designers have already thought of this. The first is the bathing area. Astronauts can spray in a wrapped shower bag to ensure their privacy. There are special toilets in the space station, just like the surface of the earth, you can also guarantee your privacy. Sleeping in space is a nuisance. In a microgravity environment, you may float to any place, and the quilt may separate from you. So in the space station, you need to enter the sleeping bag before going to sleep, and the sleeping bag is fixed to On the space station, ensure that you will not sleep in disorder. In the past, astronauts slept in a “stand” position. After the astronaut entered the sleeping bag, they would hang on the wall to sleep. Of course, you could also sleep backwards. Nowadays, in order to allow astronauts to rest more fully, our space station has specially arranged sleeping areas so that every astronaut can “lie down and sleep.” More importantly, the designers of my country’s space station have also reserved one for the astronauts. Private voice channel , Astronauts can use this channel to talk privately with their family members and share what they have seen and heard in space. This private voice channel not only solves the astronaut’s suffering of missing relatives, but also protects their privacy as much as possible. The work of 3 astronauts It is that my country’s space station is currently in the construction phase, and the three astronauts have to perform a lot of work in the space station. It is understood that there are 1243 pieces of equipment in a single core module. Assembling and debugging of these equipment requires astronauts to complete in space. In addition to work inside the cabin, astronauts have to carry out many activities outside the cabin. The environment outside the cabin is harsh, without the protection of the ozone layer and geomagnetic field. Astronauts are easily exposed to excessive radiation. In order to protect the lives and health of astronauts, they must Work in a space suit weighing up to 120 kilograms. In addition to the assembly and debugging of the equipment, the astronauts have to carry out corresponding scientific experiments in space and routine maintenance of the space station. It can be said that the three astronauts are busy in space. In order to allow the three astronauts to get adequate rest, my country’s space station Synchronize world and earth at work and rest time , The working hours of ground and space station astronauts are the same; and No night shift is required. In the past, astronauts had to take turns in the night shift in space, but nowadays, a new type of sound and light alarm system can promptly notify the astronauts to deal with the situation quickly
