It may sound silly, but it’s really a good question, because weightlessness does make a visit to the latrine a tricky proposition.
這個問題聽起來可能有些可笑，但這的確是個現實的問題，失重導致上廁所成為棘手難題。
Weightlessness poses two main problems in the bathroom.
在失重狀態下上廁所會面臨兩個問題。
The first is that an astronaut could drift away from the bowl at any time.

But, there is a simple solution. They put on thigh and foot restraints in order to go to the john!
不過，有個簡單的解決辦法。為了上廁所，他們將大腿和雙腳固定起來。
The second dilemma is a bit more complicated.
第二個問題更加復雜。
Here on earth, gravity assures that our waste falls downward, away from the body.
在地球上，重力可以保證排泄物下墜，完全遠離人體。
But, under weightless conditions, body waste has the disconcerting tendency to hover close to wherever it exited the body.
而在失重的狀態下，排泄物離開人體后漂浮在四周，還可能會靠近其他東西，令人不安！
