No, it's not pictures of galactic urinal cakes. Better. How 'bout a urine shower in the stars, courtesy of the crew of the Shuttle Discovery as they prepared to land in California on Friday?
Hey, it's gotta go somewhere, right?

So the lesson here is to keep your eyes to the skies, but keep your mouth shut.
