The Artemis II mission crew flushed out an issue with their onboard toilet system shortly after launching into space on April 1, NASA said.
The astronauts worked with NASA's mission control team in Houston to restore the Orion spacecraft's toilet to "normal operations" after an issue arose post-launch, the agency said.
NASA said in a blog post that the crew "reported a blinking fault light" related to the toilet system prior to conducting an engine maneuver known as the apogee raise burn on April 1.
"Mission control teams successfully assessed the data and worked with the crew to troubleshoot and resolve the issue," the agency said.
During a post-launch news conference, NASA Associate Administrator Amit Kshatriya described the problem as "a controller issue with the toilet."
