Astronauts had to be warned about a poo floating around the International Space Station. <\/p>\n

British crew member Tim Peake says a warning went out on the orbiting lab after a spaceman used the loo. On the Your Place Or Mine podcast, Tim, 51, said: "There was a crew member \u2013 who will remain nameless \u2013 who finished his business one morning and turned around and couldn\u2019t find any evidence of his business anywhere.<\/p>\n

"The embarrassment of having to tell crew mates to keep an eye out because something was floating around the space station that morning that shouldn\u2019t have been. They never found it either."<\/p>\n

It almost echoes the title of 1977 space flick Close Encounters Of The Third Kind, starring Richard Dreyfuss. West Sussex-born Tim flew to the ISS in 2015 \u2013 the first Brit to do so. <\/p>\n

He was joined by US Colonel Tim Kopra, 60, and Russian Yuri Malenchenko, 61. Discussing using the loo in space, Tim explained: "You don\u2019t want to make a mess and it\u2019s all about a fan \u2013 switching on the fan and the airflow keeps everything going in the right direction."<\/p>\n
