Abstract

This paper considers modifications a conventional terrestrial toilet design may require in order to ensure a successful flush if it was placed on the surface of mars. It is found that the water tank must be located a factor of 2.6 times higher than it would be on earth to compensate for reduced gravity on the Martian surface.
