Space Station Residents to Drink Recycled Urine

Michael Barratt, a NASA astronaut and flight surgeon making his first flight, said the crew has been cleared to use processed urine and condensate for personal hygiene, and expects permission to begin drinking the recycled water in the next few weeks.
Barratt also told CBS News that he looked forward to "running on Colbert" when a new treadmill, named after comedian Stephen Colbert, is delivered to the station later this year.
Colbert recently urged viewers to vote for him in a NASA competition to name a new space station module. His choice--the Colbert module--came in first, but NASA announced on his show Tuesday that the module would instead be named Tranquility. Astronaut Sunita Williams, a space station veteran, told the comedian that instead, a new treadmill would be known as the Combined Operational Load Bearing External Resistance Treadmill, or Colbert.
