Apparently when Alan Shepard took his first flight, there were delays leading up to liftoff, and so he sat in the capsule for several hours. He finally had to take a pee, and no one had designed a relief tube into his suit. They told him to just let it go in the suit. When Gus Grissom went up, they hadn’t corrected the issue yet, so they gave him a condom.
Funny how when we studied the history of the space program in school, they never mentioned any of this…

That’s one small step for a tourist, and one less customer for the R.U. Sirius gift shop.

They lose a lot of tourists that way. Fortunately the tourists all sign a waiver of liability before leaving earth.

Reminds me of John Glen’s orbital flight when he saw small golden objects outside his capsule
