The Pink Water incident is one of the earliest incidents involving the simulators. The astronauts' drinking-water supply became contaminated and appeared pink. The astronauts were required to perform tests upon the water to determine if it was still safe. Even after the tests indicated that the water was potable, and Mission Control insisted that it was safe, the astronauts refused to drink the water.
Green Water
The green water incident occurred during Mission Daedalus 2010, and was the same as the pink water incident except that the contaminated water was green. Immediately prior to this mission a new method for piping water into the habitat from the Simulator Loft had been implemented, and for a period of several hours leading up to the incident the simulators cut off all water supply to the habitat. When the water finally returned it was green, and it remained green for a period of about a day. During this time both Bryce Storey and Peter Macdonald decided to drink the water, despite Earth Station 1 having notified them that it potentially contained biological contaminants and that they would be fine if they boiled it first.
