Wag bags are used for poop on canyon trips...and even some mountain trips...recommended in maroon bells wilderness.

I watched the video hoping to find out if NASA had a way of making poop vanish, you know, just vaporize or something. Since they have to bring it all the way back to earth, it seems there's not much promise of a solution to the problem anytime soon

I thought they would freeze dry it like they did the pee, but not. Same old problem in space. They did not have many solutions in those videos, except for water recycling which they did not go into in depth.  "Today's coffee is tomorrow's coffee" was the most hilarious quote I found.   ~crofter
