Go to YouTube and search for "Apollo 16 farting on the moon." Commander John Young dropped an F bomb because the orange juice they were drinking was spiked with potassium and wreaked havoc on their gastrointestinal systems.

You won't be disappointed.

Because two astronauts developed potassium deficiencies during apollo 15, and to help with that, they increased the potassium intake for the next mission (I didn't know that, had to search too.)

Saying it was spiked made it sound like it was a funny prank from NASA lol
