Wringing Out A Washcloth...In Space

It's even cooler than you think!

Ive seen a couple of these where he just lets little water droplets float off into who knows what equipment. I guess they aren't too worried about it. Maybe NASA specs dictate that all electronics be water proof in case of accident.

Speaking of accidents, I saw one video where a woman was showing where they go to the bathroom and how they have to aim for the suction hose very carefully. Sometimes, if they miss, and there is a mess, they have gloves and paper towels and wipes to clean things up. Can you imagine little poop and pee asteroids floating around in the station? They're in that little phone booth bathroom with the door closed, but still, that's kind of yucky.

I should think a hand held suction hose would be handy for plucking errant particles out of the air.
