"...With the addition of toilets to the Donnager-class, the MCR has established its technological superiority across the Solar system."
Oh noes, the Martians won! ☺
I cannot tell you how much I love this comment
That explains its destruction. The whole thing is a conspiracy against toilet facilities on spacecraft!

"Unfortunately, it's in the kitchen."
Dead.
Actually makes sense to have the two parts that need water eg plumbing close together
Well toilets can be in interesting nooks in SUVs and boats here on earth, so a closet in the kitchen near other plumbing isn't that farfetched.
If i remember currectly in the original design, there was no kitchen, just a toilet.
However this did not stop people from converting the bathroom into a kitchen.
Let me tell ya kid... If you see Chewie here get up and make a bee line for the kitchen at night, you better be heading in the opposite direction.
If I'm not mistaken, Han added kitchen in Millennium Falcon as a wedding anniversary gift for Leia. I remember read/watch about it somewhere.
Child: "When you flush the toilet, where does it go?"
Me, a visionary space-warship designer: "Frozen in a special fridge before being sent to the mass drivers"
If you managed to hit the enemy's cooling system, shit would really hit the fan
How do you mass drive a poo?
Romulan Child: When you flush the toilet on a D'deridex-class Warbird, where does it go?
Tal Shi'ar: Silly child, all waste, including cafeteria leavings and toilet effluent, is fed into the point singularity at the core of the ship's engine. Also all engine exhaust. As well, disloyal crewmen and slain security guards. Not to mention unruly children who ask impertinent questions.
@@TheSuperQuail very carefully, so as to avoid any splatter
In Dead Space the ships have an insane amount of toilets. Every area has a whole toilet section. The USG Ishimura is about 20% toilet facilty.
Overcompensation,
Or conversely: widespread diarrhea...
This is, by far, the best and most important sci-fi video on youtube.
And the fact that the Millennium Falcon's toilet is in the kitchen is just precious. Like I can just imagine...
Leia: "Han, where is the refresher?"
Han: *as a matter of factly* "In the kitchen."
Leia: *incredulous* "What... did you just say to me!"
Or...
Han: Walks into the kitchen to get a morning coffee when he pauses. "Seriously, right now?"
Chewbacca: "ROOOOOAAAAAARRR!"
The sadist part is that's something North Americans have in certain single person small apartments
@@SkylerLinux cells*
"Star Gate" also had a bathroom comment.
Soo... The ships of The Sojourn all have a full compliment of toilets I'll assume?
You're damn right. :)
What about a shower. I feel a way to bathe is, while not vital, much appreciated
Considering what the Sojourn was, it DEFINITELY should have a shower.
@@subraxas I don't understand the question. If you are "finished" eating the Banana, what peel are you referring to?
Needs a plunger after space nacho night
Battlestar Galactica: the only series where dramatic scenes and character development occur in the bathroom.
...and they looked like a real one on top of that! 😅
That's not true, B5 had bathrooms and good scenes in them.
There is one short scene of using toilet in Firefly.
I'm still waiting to hear the flush "Ahhh, that feels better!" 😅
I might be remebering this wrong but Katee Sackhoffs scifi show Another Life takes place in showers and restrooms as well I think.
I lost it as soon as you said "Thunderclap" 😂
I did as well. it took me a moment but hot damn that was great.
That REALLY is the name of the ship tho the BT-7 Thunderclap the worst ship in the Old Republic.
Yeah sounds like an EVD gone horribly awry lmfao
I never knew how much I wanted this video to exist till now. Thank you, Mr Dock.
Yes, what a relief!
That sign off is the most homosexual thing I've ever heard.
MR DOCK XD
Objectively the best spacedock video
I second this
"Space Penicillin, Lieutenant? What for? You've only just mustered aboard!"
"Um, well, sir-- I uh, spent my shore leave on Argelius, and got a dose of the Thunder-Clap."
The Bebop from Cowboy Bebop has a toilet and a bathroom area to shower also. Bebop was a fishing spacecraft.
Kirk Davis, a fishing... spacecraft?
Yep! The Bebop is a Ganymeda fishing boat spacecraft that once transported is goods through outer space. I the anime Ganymeda was terraform into a water world.@@JC-om7nr
@@JC-om7nr It doesn't even fish in space. It's a spacecraft that is meant to land in the water on the surface of a planet and fish like a fishing boat. It's amazing.
Outlaw star i think had one in the XGP or "Outlaw Star"
Anime or Remake?.
You may think that this is some kind of joke, but Daniel has touches a very serious problem within sci-fi. Writers are so consumed with writing exceptional technology and wondrous new alien civilizations that they forget all the human aspects of the life and that sometimes makes their heroes unrelatable to, because writers forgot to make them human enough, being focused on bringing up new, alien concepts
rzufig then again, there are no toilets used in Skyrim, Fallout, Forza, Halo, COD or the like. So... maybe adding these kinds of things would actually detract from the story and not add to it.
@@mso82 Well, BSG uses them as a storytelling-element ^^
Pssst.
Fallout is full of toilets. Out of most, you can even drink!
A large part of it is that toilets are seen as sophmoric humor devices, But also they have very little place in serious plots so on shows like Trek they see no need to mention them. Strangely, Star Citizen ships have plenty of jokes around their shitters. Especially the toilets that share a space with the shower.
@@filanfyretracker Star Citizen interior design is..."questionable". Not just the toilets, but also the sleeping-coffins used by AEGIS, also known as beds xD
Holden: AMOS FIX THE TOILET NOW!
Amos: but the engine -
Holden: Alex had an everything burrito!!!
Everyone: [panic ensues]
Amos: Point his ass out the airlock!
Alex (spacesuited except for his buttocks): How fast we goin?!
Naomi: NIIIIINNNNEEEE GEEEEEEEE!!!!!!
MCRN pursuit fleet: They fitted a new engine to the Tachi!
@@fix0the0spade Im legit dying of suffocation here xD

Lmfao
This was my entire beef with Skyrim, too.
Gotta give it to you, this was a top tier shitpost
I'm allowed to be just a little proud of that one
"Shepard the mens restroom is on the portside of the ship"
Shepards response was probably "wait, not only do we have a restroom, we have TWO!?!"
Uuhhhhh, I think you have the wrong side of the ship there...
This is confusing for femshep players.
@@owenhoward5168 "Shepard, the women's restroom is on the starboard side of the ship."
I'm just looking for the poop deck.
You mean that kid who wrote in on Enterprise who asked about what happens when you use the bathroom in space was onto something?
ayyy I remember this
In that show though the waste recycling was where they got some of their their renewable food and resources from. We even got a scene with the captain in the shower. So that ship definitely had toilets.
@@ThePCguy17 But on Star Trek there's an easier answer: transporter undies.
@@martykarr7058 nah..just very precise adjustments to the standard transporter system...and a tricorder scan after to make sure nothing vital got beamed out into space
@@kazumablackwing4270 What makes you think it got beamed out into space? Where do you thing the "organic material" comes from for the replicators?
Actually the SR1 does have a toilet, it uses an omni-gel converter to break down the solid waste and turn it into ammunition for the ship's main mass accelerator.
Where is it?
"After the Dynamic-Class Freighter became the success it was famed to be, the Corellian Engineering Corporation got their heads together and spent 4,500 years trying to come up with a better design."
Fireflys toilet always interested me. The fold away design, so practical😂
"I'm going to put a toilet in a soaceship"
It is a nice touch. Thanks to whoever made sure it would be there. Joss or whoever.
The really fun fact is that they were based on an old design that were used in old railway sleeper cars
My dad actually criticized the folding design as follows: you don't actually save space, as now you need to dedicate twice as much of your ship to the one toilet
@@TheAchilles26 Perhaps true, but at least you don't have a crapper just hanging out in, say, the kitchen.
I lost it at EVD™, brilliant job once again Spacedock!
Awwww. Yer profile pic 😍
One can also use it as an "Auxiliary Thruster".
If there are no toilets on interstellar vessels, what happens to The Captains Log.
Oh god...
I can never use that term in writing ever again. EVER. Gods dammit...
😆😆😆
Booo!!!
You know, I always said to everyone that want to listen: Toilets are going to be the major bottleneck for any advancement of human habitability in space.
Specifically, waste management & water recycling systems.
Especially if you talk about mass civilian habitats/spaceship.
It's nice to finally find someone who understand.
*Le Sigh*
Just take inspiration from the ISS.
Well that's a flaw that could send those ships down the crapper.
@@Terenin well that reeked.
In an Expanse-style universe, I have two sets of toilet-related questions:
1. Does the waste go into the fusion reactor? Or do they process it and use the "grey water" for RCS thrusters and toilet water (or to water plants on larger ships)?
2. At anything close to 1g acceleration, you could use a toilet normally (though at lower accelerations the splash back could be annoying...). But when not accelerating, what do they do? Use vacuum suction?
A short sci-fi horror story involving a starship crew stranded in uncharted space, "I have no toilet, and I must poop..."
In the Star Trek: Enterprise episode "The Catwalk," the need for a latrine in the improvised storm shelter is mentioned. B5 had an actual scene take place in a public toilet in season 2. There were bogs in the brigs in Star Trek V, but apparently no bogs in TNG's or Voyager's brigs, unless they folded into the walls.
And there didn't seem to be any toilets in the agony booths in the mirror universe palace ship Charon in Star Trek: Discovery, or indeed anywhere in their universe, which would explain everybody's generally grouchy temperament.
Another reason Fire fly was the best. Ship had folding toilets
After folding the toilet back into the wall he pulls out the recessed sink located directly above it which implies to me that its a closed system and he -and everyone else- are washing their hands with their own filtered pee.
@@copaceticetal well urine is Sterile... so it makes sense? No?
@@copaceticetal Don't be (too) silly, fed off the same water tanks certainly, but the behind the scenes stuff gave Fireflies a septic tank that had to be emptied occasionally, was going to be a joke about it in some unproduced later episode.
WTH is Firefly?
@@BeyondDaX
I dont know some kind of show
The starwars designers need a refresher course
Ayyy
That ending with Archer and Trip was great
*that sounds like an engineering question*
Funny enough in the current book of the Expanse (book 7), at the beginning of one of the first chapters, Bobbie is actually in the Rocinate's lav when thrust gravity is suddenly cut out. Bobbie comments that the toilet knew to vacuum suck the waste so it wouldn't go floating around the lav with the sudden lack of gravity.
This video is a great way to gauge one’s maturity level. And proof that mine is very very low :P
Welcome to the bottom pal; I was laughing so hard I had tears running down my cheeks.
@@Dargonhuman So is the comments section. :D
Hey guys, I know why Bioware characters always look constipated...
*Because they are!*
"I'm sorry. My anus is tired."
@@davemarx7856 "I've been holding it for over three hundred years."
This topic deserves a series.
The Millennium Falcon’s toilet is in the kitchen...
Wait, remind me, HOW MANY people were on the Falcon at the end of the Last Jedi?
David Hobson well the entire protagonist crew ( except for Luke who became one with the force) plus probably a dozen rebel soldiers
At this point I suddenly hope less rebels survived the battle
Can you imagine the schedule they'd have to draw up to coordinate cooking food for all those people and then giving each person a chance at some privacy?
"Ok, it's your turn on the pot."
"What do you mean? I literally JUST ate."
"Well, you better try your best because you're not getting another chance for 24 hours."
Actually with that tech that would make sense. As I watched this: ua-cam.com/video/HDvSPQ7megQ/v-deo.html the transportaltion of the "source material" would be reduced to a minimum distance.
All the pervs wait around for Leia to use it.
Hey, if the food is bad enough, it’s a good place.
Now now, there is _one_ explicitly mentioned toilet in a major sci-fi franchise... it was the Bajoran lightsail craft of deep space nine- designed for zero g and simple enough that an alien human could just “figure it out”
Not mentioned but actually shown are the bogs on Babylon 5, Sinclair and Garibaldi have a discussion while having a slash.
@@stamfordly6463 Sheridan & Garibaldi.
@@stamfordly6463 And as they walk out of the mens room, an officer that presents as female enters past them. So much for trans rights in the Earth Alliance.
@@rakaydosdraj8405 maybe they're gender neutral bathrooms? (i'm assuming there were stalls as well as urinals)
@@soupalex Except for the male signage...
I remember in some game years ago (TT RPG) all of us sitting around looking at a map someone had found of a ship type our group was thinking of using, when someone said, "wait, this thing has 2 months of supplies? But no beds or refresher room?" We looked again and, sure enough, no thought had been given to proper crew amenities! :)
Funny enough, I'm watching this sitting on my "command" throne.

This is EXACTLY why I love your channel so much. You look at not only the broad overview of the various universes, but also those little details. Awesome!
From 2001: A Space Odessey...On the Earth-Moon shuttle...
ZERO GRAVITY TOILET
PASSENGERS ARE ADVISED TO READ INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
1 The toilet is of the standard zero-gravity type. Depending on requirements, System A and/or System B can be used, details of which are clearly marked in the toilet compartment. When operating System A, depress lever and a plastic dalkron eliminator will be dispensed through the slot immediately underneath. When you have fastened the adhesive lip, attach connection marked by the large "X" outlet hose. Twist the silver coloured ring one inch below the connection point until you feel it lock.
2 The toilet is now ready for use. The Sonovac cleanser is activated by the small switch on the lip. When securing, twist the ring back to its initial-condition, so that the two orange line meet. Disconnect. Place the dalkron eliminator in the vacuum receptacle to the rear. Activate by pressing the blue button.
3 The controls for System B are located on the opposite wall. The red release switch places the uroliminator into position; it can be adjusted manually up or down by pressing the blue manual release button. The opening is self adjusting. To secure after use, press the green button which simultaneously activates the evaporator and returns the uroliminator to its storage position.
4 You may leave the lavatory if the green exit light is on over the door. If the red light is illuminated, one of the lavatory facilities is not properly secured. Press the "Stewardess" call button on the right of the door. She will secure all facilities from her control panel outside. When green exit light goes on you may open the door and leave. Please close the door behind you.
5 To use the Sonoshower, first undress and place all your clothes in the clothes rack. Put on the velcro slippers located in the cabinet immediately below. Enter the shower. On the control panel to your upper right upon entering you will see a "Shower seal" button. Press to activate. A green light will then be illuminated immediately below. On the intensity knob select the desired setting. Now depress the Sonovac activation lever. Bathe normally.
6 The Sonovac will automatically go off after three minutes unless you activate the "Manual off" over-ride switch by flipping it up. When you are ready to leave, press the blue "Shower seal" release button. The door will open and you may leave. Please remove the velcro slippers and place them in their container.
7 If the red light above this panel is on, the toilet is in use. When the green light is illuminated you may enter. However, you must carefully follow all instructions when using the facilities during coasting (Zero G) flight. Inside there are three facilities: (1) the Sonowasher, (2) the Sonoshower, (3) the toilet. All three are designed to be used under weightless conditions. Please observe the sequence of operations for each individual facility.
8 Two modes for Sonowashing your face and hands are available, the "moist-towel" mode and the "Sonovac" ultrasonic cleaner mode. You may select either mode by moving the appropriate lever to the "Activate" position.
9 If you choose the "moist-towel" mode, depress the indicated yellow button and withdraw item. When you have finished, discard the towel in the vacuum dispenser, holding the indicated lever in the "active" position until the green light goes on...showing that the rollers have passed the towel completely into the dispenser. If you desire an additional towel, press the yellow button and repeat the cycle.
10 If you prefer the "Sonovac" ultrasonic cleaning mode, press the indicated blue button. When the twin panels open, pull forward by rings A & B. For cleaning the hands, use in this position. Set the timer to positions 10, 20, 30 or 40...indicative of the number of seconds required. The knob to the left, just below the blue light, has three settings, low, medium or high. For normal use, the medium setting is suggested.
11 After these settings have been made, you can activate the device by switching to the "ON" position the clearly marked red switch. If during the washing operation, you wish to change the settings, place the "manual off" over-ride switch in the "OFF" position. you may now make the change and repeat the cycle.
Damn, thats one long instruction about using toilet
@@wilkor-lc7ox That's the whole joke about it...by the time you finish reading it, you have already wet your pants! Arthur C. Clarke did have a fully developed sense of humour!
@@FarrellMcGovern i got it. I would never read it in emergency situation, their fault if i would break something
TL;DR. . .lol, I've actually paused the movie to read it, before I found the poster online. It was a great prop to make things seem more real and normal.
@wilkor 1792 As a matter of fact they have similar thing on the International Space Station, and I think it is much longer
But what about the 3 Seashells?
You don't know how to use the 3 seashells?
How do those DAMN 3 seashells work???
[Utters 8-9 dozen different swear words and profanity, finned a whole lotta paper]
Well, so much for the 3 seashells.....I'll be right back.
#DemolitionMan
Note to self: Make mention of toilets on any ships in my sci-fi story.
Also, this had me laughing so hard XD
Love the nod to Enterprise at the end. That was a great question and something Star Trek has danced around for awhile
This was great. Although, in Star Trek V when they were in the brig, there was a sign on the wall telling occupants, 'Please do not use toilet while in spacedock'. Comedy gold, I tells ya!
in fact the "chair" that Kirk sits on in that scene is the first and only toilet we see in star trek.
And don't forget the 'no smoking on bridge' sign on the bridge, just in case someone don't knows where he is
@@jwilder47 Sort of- the Enterprise -D had a sign on a door just off the bridge (at the back, on the left of the screen when getting the standard 'viewscreen is camera' shot) which stated it contained the head (or, in other words, the toilet). There was also a small observation deck/break room accessed by the same alcove. While we don't get to see it actually on screen, we do get a number of shots of crewmen whose job when battle stations or Red Alert has been called is apparently to go hit the head.
@@ala5530 ah there it is, I was wondering if anyone would remember that. The Enterprise D Tech Manual shows that area as the Head. Just left of the door going back into the Observation Lounge conference room.
@@ala5530 Someone has to batten down the zero-g toilets or shit's going to get real ugly real quick
Mass effect 2 and 3 are one of the few I can think of that have it.
Peragus Station in KOTOR II also had one. They call it a "Refresher" in Star Wars. Apparently it's the sink AND the toilet...
most of the ships in Star Citizen have toilets
The Von Braun from System Shock 2 have toilets.
Red Dwarf.
I seem to have heard that ships in Star Trek just beam away the waste. Right out of people's intestines.
I'd like to think that I'm too mature for poo jokes... I was wrong! Fine work Daniel!
Reminds me of an old GDC (game developer conference) talk. The guy was trying to explain how to make realistic levels and his first question when presented with a level is "where's the toilet?"
The Firefly-class has a toilet, which is nice.
Don't forget *toilet paper* cause you going to need a whole lot of them for a very long spaced voyage.
You could remove or at least minimize the need for toilette paper by installing bidets or toilets with a bidet function (just look at the crazy toilets the japanese have)
Colonel Frontline just use the 3 seashells
No need for paper if you use the 3 seashells!
we could go back to the Roman method of the singular communal sponge per bathroom.
Praxus May'Salkiriiss he doesn't know how to use the 3 seashells haha
I find it amazing that modern writers and scifi "engineers" have forgotten the value of these compartments. As Duke Nukem said afterwards "Aahhh... much better." 💪😏👍
I wrote a sci-fi story and went into great detail about the bathrooms including the tolets. No need to wipe, samples your waste and automatically makes changes to your diet for optimal health. Every dorm has a private bathroom.
I'd say oxygen is a arguably more important..... But yeah waste disposal is pretty important!
Pudlord Tynan I don’t know man, have you ever suffered constapation?
And considering that if one were to deficate without proper toilets, people might die of methane poisoning, both should be vitally important.
Well, I'm sure that all the farts can help extend the breathability of the ship's atmosphere.
What happens when you have no oxygen?
You die.
What happens when you die?
Your bowels release.
Therefore, the need for toilet facilities is greater than the need to keep the crew alive.
Difference is that writers will gladly shove a complex air filtration system into a design while ignoring proper restrooms.
This " crap" is very interesting
Finally someone talking about the important issues of scifi I was just glad it was you who got to the bottom of this issue
Dan, I have fallowed your channel for a few years now. Ive got too say, this is possibly on of the best videos/ points you've made so far. Please continue the good work and keep it flowing.
This is something that has bothered me for YEARS, even in star ship simulators i really have to know where the toilet is on a space ship, like in star trek you have to wonder where are the toilets especially with how much tea picard is drinking, and old tech manual i have from when the first season had just come out shows there is one behind the wall where the fish tank is but we never get to see it. seriously i want someone in the trek production team to solve this issue is annoying, what are they doing BEAMING IT out into space right out of our butts
Don't forget the shuttles. They're sometimes using them for days without any toilet... :o (the same for stargate's puddle jumpers)
@@StYxXx that is a good point i hadn't really though much about the shuttles that they use on longer missions like those pod ones they used a lot in season 2 onwards they tend to be blown up or destroyed and geordi took one to risa and got kidnapped -he didn't need to use the bathroom with how many drinks he was taking? i think all sci fi series must think about this and consider where to put the bathrooms, otherwise im going to harp on this forever
Picard: we have evolved beyond the need of toilets.
@Chaosmage42 ua-cam.com/video/bAM2dEEulBk/v-deo.html
@@HuggieBear39 ah nice that they include it but there isn't one in the ready room and the three seashell joke again?
but in all seriousness i would like to see in an actual star trek series them show that they have bathrooms
also i want to know if when they re route all power if that turns off the bathrooms, you have to wounder if thats one of they consider that nonessential, i would say thats a fairly primary system to staying alive in space
Wait there was no kitchen on the millennium falcon until Han and Leia got married. That means Han purposely installed the kitchen next to the toilet.
That's a good point.
I mean it makes sense the plumbing is already there
This video made my day. Explosive decompression? Thunderclap? And the segment from ST Enterprise where they got a question about the toilets.
But seriously, do these companies do it deliberately, do they forget, or are they too embarrassed?
This is my favorite video on all of youtube. Thank you, Spacedock.
Babylon 5 have public toilets ;)
And were used on screen.
They had meetings on the men's room while urinating on B5.
"Do you zip and button or button and then zip?" -Garibaldi
I love when Garibaldi was talking to a reporter and when she asked where the bathroom was. He told her, then mentioned the blue door was for methane breathers only...
So far I haven't forgotten to add toilets/bathrooms in my writing,at least if they become relevant.
This video is a work of art. One of your best yet :D
This video made my day! Thank you for discussing this topic of utmost importance!
I’ve always wondered about the fighter pilots in Star Wars. Because most of them have hyperdrives, you could spend days in an X-Wing cockpit. When Luke went from Hoth to Sagobah did he land for pee breaks, or was he using something like the chair from Idiocracy?
Astronaut Diapers?
at least, the Enterprise NCC-1701 A had toilets for the Inmates
but, maybe do beam the use the transporter for Waste extraction, that would also explain what transporter chiefs do all the time when nobody uses one
I thought they would just recycle it with the replicator system.
Oh, you had SO MUCH fun writing this script. Great job!
An anime series called Vandread actually has full bathroom facilities (showers, baths and toilets) on the lead ship. The concept and themes of the story as well as the circumstances of the characters are very interesting to watch.
The SR1 got around the toilet problem using diapers
What, no mention of the toilets in the Firefly-class mid-bulk transport?
Was not expecting this, love it
This is a great video! Laughed through the whole thing!
I think toilets are implied in Star Trek's quarters
There is also one on the bridge of the Enterprise-D. From Worf's position at Tactical, turn to the right and go through that short passageway at the top of the ramp. There are two doors, one to either side. The door on the left is labeled the "head", which is a nautical term for bathroom.
Star Citizen doesn't know this issue ^^ Toilets in almost every ships.
Ynoita yes, but even they could put a lot more effort into the design their waste disposal systems. Example: Constellation Phynix
@@flograuper9294 Speak up on spectrum brother. VIPs showering in the crew toilet is unacceptable! Certainly not immersive.
Expeditionary Force doesn't have it too, altho bathrooms are on even fighters lol
Except for the Aurora LX "explorer" ship (not to mention other Auroras. These are civilian craft, for cryin' out loud!).
1:06 Probably the Normandy :D
2:05 "Unfortunately, it's in the kitchen". Slow zoom in with the light shining and that sudden tilt when you said it killed me!
Brilliant editing in this video!
This video answered so many of my questions
My guess is that the writers were so used to excluding using the toilet in their works that they forgot
So are you scraping the bottom of the toilet bowl :) ?
I did not expect this...
And i loved it
This is the kind of content I subscribe to. Quality analysis.
Star citizen has toilets in there ships I count star citizen as a sci fi because reasons
Your finest work!!
I honestly couldn't stop giggling the entire time watching this. Love it!
I commend you for keeping a straight voice in a rather hilarious topic.
This is a topic that has always bugged me, and I’m glad that someone has actually addressed it for once.
Nice to see Someone ask the right questions.
OMG thats was classic, well done!!!!
I remember two cases where designers do care about this. In Legend of the Galactic Heroes, the Ulysses is mentioned to "surviving the battle with only a direct hit to the ship's toilets", and the result is reasonably messy for her crew; In Prey, Talos 1 actually have sufficient amount of very good restrooms and bathrooms, and even have water recycle and waste disposal system which player can visit and repair.
This is still one of my favorite videos from Daniel. I just play it in the background sometimes
" quite literally, s*** out of luck"
Beautifully stated sir! Beautifully stated indeed!
There was a 2 block cartoon spoof in Mad magazine. Luke in the cantina looks for the rest room. When he goes in, there are 16 different urinals for various alien plumbing along the wall.
This is one of my favorite videos on this channel, for reasons I desperately wish I understood
This has been a pet peeve of mine for 15 years. I've never felt so connected to a kindred spirit before. Thank you for proving to me that I'm not the only one that's annoyed by this.
One Sci-fi series did tackle the issue with toilets and that was Mobile Suit Gundam Reconguista in G. The Toilet seat was built into the cockpit seat for the mobile suit so it was a 2 in 1 setup making it easy for the pilots to take care of business before combat starts or taking their last dump right after a beam saber guts them in 2.
Mobile suit mecha are not ships but I just wanted to point this out,
Bravo on covering this!
I love your videos and kind of expected a serious breakdown of zero-G waste disposal systems, but I got the idea early on and you killed it sir!
Love a good fun video once in a bit, liked and favorited!
This had me in stitches
At last someone came up with that issue I've always wondered about!
Funny material, thank you so much!
As always spacedock is answering the really important questions.
Great video! :D
