Astronaut Koichi Wakata is returning to Earth wearing the same underpants he has worn for a month during his space station visit.
The pants are experimental and designed to be odour-free.
As crew on the shuttle Endeavour headed back to Earth, the Japanese astronaut broke the news to his colleagues about the underwear experiment.
He said: "I wore them for about a month, and my station crew members never complained for about a month, so I think the experiment went fine".
Maybe they were just being polite? ;D
