Astronauts (both real and fictional) have to deal with a whole range of poop problems. Diarrhea, naturally, is one of them.

Mika McKinnon, a geophysicist and disaster researcher who served as the film’s scientific advisor, is pleased to report that topsy turvy tummies are perfectly welcome on the International Space Station . “IBS would not be an eliminating factor if you’re an astronaut candidate,” she says.

“There are a lot of folks who have issues,” he says. “One thing I remember from my medical training is that the only ‘normal’ person just hasn’t been evaluated enough.” In most cases, he says, he and other members of the medical team simply endeavor to give the astronaut candidate the medical care they need to take care of the problem.

“Hygiene time” is rigidly scheduled—just like everything an astronaut does—to avoid pile-ups, which can reasonably stress some newcomers out. And some astronauts say that despite the strange effects that zero gravity may have on the fluids sloshing around inside,just as it would on the ground. Schmid explains that astronauts are welcome to squeeze in necessary bathroom breaks by finishing up various tasks a little early—no one actually expects them to poop on a perfect schedule.
