There&#39;s No Crying in Space Because Tears Just Stay on Your
EyeS  Andrew Feustel, an astronaut, got soap in his eye and
started tearing up. In his words, "my right eye is stinging like
crazy" which really sucks because in space, tears "don't fall
off of your eye...they kind of stay there."  Feustel was
spacewalking when the incident occurred and almost had to
retreat back to the ISS for safety. The culprit that caused the
tears was an anti-fogging solution—pretty much dishwasher
soap—that was applied inside of his helmet. The soap flaked off
because the solution wasn't buffed properly. Wax on! Wax off!
Luckily, Feustel resourcefully rubbed his eye against a foam
block in his helmet. That foam block is typically used for
cleaning ears, but whatever! It's a helluva lot better than
having tears on your eyeball. [AP]  Image Credit:
