During a recent meeting of NIICHIMMASH's scientific and technological council, a decision was made "to begin the development of sanitary-hygienic means, including shower, sauna, wash-hand basin and washing machine capable of operating in conditions of a space flight."
Additionally, NIICHIMMASH will focus on developing water recovery systems, to be used by the personnel of future spacecraft, orbital stations and on-planet bases.
NIICHIMMASH's scientific and technological council underscored that "the most important stage of the work" will be testing the new equipment on board the ISS.
