All waste for the astronauts, trash, crap and even bodily waste is brought back with them when they return to earth. They do not want to create a derby field out where their doing work, It could do damage to the shuttle or a satellite, remember, it has no motion where you drop it it will remain, So if the shuttle is doing 18,000mph or one lap around earth every 90 min, What do you think will happen when they hit a frozen turd. That would be a s#!ty way to go. So simply put everything comes back nothing is left behind.

liquids are extracted , purified, and recycled through drinking water. Same as here on earth. All water, since the beginning of time, exists now and will continue to exist in some form, i.e., vapor, water, etc. It's all reused by nature and ultimately by plants and animals. Pretty ingenious of nature, huh?

Nope, all above answers are wrong. Body waste is recylced and then used all over again as food. It's easy to do this in zero gravity. :-)

Tom, are you trying to be facetious?
My only question is: how do they wipe, (especially in zero gravity)--one can't lose the "paper"--you gotta hang on to it...
Who'd want that floating around in living space?
