They had though of maybe doing a water dump, but on a different day. http://www.hq.nasa.gov/osf/iss_reports/reports2008/05-08-2008.htm It says Condensate Water Management: With US condensate being produced but not processed for Elektron as required, Houston flight controllers have proposed a water dump on 5/18 or 5/19 to get rid of the surplus. The overboard venting would necessitate a temporary change in ISS attitude. Moscow agrees in principle to the attitude maneuver but is suggesting, as an alternate plan, to store the condensate in clean ATV tanks until the SRVK functionality has been restored. The proposal is under joint study. __________________________________________________________________ Looking for the perfect gift?
