The Barbies in that picture appear to be those from 1998. There were two Barbie skin tones for the first release and the new release is going to have 3.

During my 24 hour mission, our shuttle toilet was "broken". The fan was reversed and we had to take it apart and reverse it. It was a scenario that happened on an actual mission but I can't remember which one.

The first thing you do in the tank is learning basic skills like clearing your mask and such. Once the instructor is satisfied that everyone knows the skills you will go down the ladder with the instructor either by yourself or with another person, depending on how much time there is.

You can to participate in activites or just go off on your own. There is also no lights out. I want to one day go ...
