In order to have water available for astronauts' use while they are on space missions, the following technology is employed:
-- Earth water is injected into bottles, plastic bags, tanks, packaged food, and the astronauts' bodies.
-- These items are then stowed aboard the spacecraft, and launched together with the astronauts.
-- During the mission, some of the waste water discarded from the astronauts' bodies and from other processes is collected and recycled in the spacecraft.
What else can I help you with?
Does water take up space?
Yes, water does take up space. It has mass and volume, which means it occupies a certain amount of space depending on the quantity of water present.
Is space water?
water is not from space. People who go into space (astronauts) bring it with them and they reuse it and when they use it, they use 1 tenth of what we use now because the water turns to droplets in zero gravity. I don't know how big they are. Somebody plz tell me!
Would the space shuttle float on water?
It should, it's air tight. An Aircraft carrier floats and it's hugh. Any rocket scientists out there?
How do you recyle water in a space station up in space?
On the International Space Station, the vast majority of water is recycled. Water is expensive to transport into space, so it is vital that every last drop be conserved. Water is recycled from a variety of sources, such as: the sink, shower, space suit wastewater (Each space suit uses tubes full of cold water to cool astronauts while they are on EVA), water from heating and cooling systems, moisture in the air (Exhaled by astronauts and lab animals), the Space Shuttle's fuel cells (The fuel cells convert oxygen and hydrogen into water to produce power), and even from the urine of astronauts and lab animals.The water is purified through a rigorous process that is even more efficient than sewage treatment plants so that it can be used again. Some water is lost through the airlock, carbon dioxide removal systems, and oxygen generation systems, although at least 95% of the water onboard the space station is reused. Every once in a while, new water is brought to the space station onboard the Space Shuttle or through Russian Progress Resupply ships.they recycle the water thru a machine by filtering water 5 times a minute for an hour
Does a gallon of water weigh the same in space?
Yes, a gallon of water has the same mass in space as it does on Earth. However, because weight is a force dependent on gravity, the weight of the water would be different in space compared to on Earth due to the difference in gravitational pull.
How do they use water in space?
There is not water in space!
How does water get in space?

Does water take up space?
Yes, water does take up space. It has mass and volume, which means it occupies a certain amount of space depending on the quantity of water present.
Does water occupy space?
Yes. Water occupies space. If you don't believe try out an experiment where you put water in a syringe and try to push it.
Does space have water?
No .
Are there pockets of space between water molecules?
No - just space. The space has no pockets.
How do they get water on the space station?
They will have to recycle the water.
When water freezes does it take up more space or less space?
The water will expand on freezing, so taking up more space.
How do they get water into space?
Bring it in a special water bottle
