Lines: 11 This may have been answered before but... Since the beginning of manned space flight, what happens to the water that is dumped during flight? In the case of the Shuttle, is it close enough to Earth to cause it to re-enter? Else, does it become a frozen mass of whatever, forever stuck in orbit? Or is it simply that they figure we have enough of it that it can be thrown away without any thought?
