A closed system. Why is this even a surprise?

Bacteria? Par for the course as it was introduced by humans as are fungi:https://www.space.com/31772-fungi-survive-mars-conditions-space-station.html It is simply impossible to maintain a sterile environment when all these guys are riders on humans.

It’s not a closed system. They have the vacuum of space for removal.

Bleach seems to be a good way to kill bacteria. Makes me wonder if there are any strains immune to bleach.

” The toilet of the orbiting space base was one of the main sites of infection”

Cryptosporidia species are highly resistant to bleach, and are a significant cause of diarrhea in day care centers and schools. They can be killed by hydrogen peroxide.

Send up a hoard of microscopic Tardigrades (Water Bears that can reportedly survive the vacuum of space) and let them wreck havoc on the bacteria.

Nano silver. Not toxic or caustic to people and the residue keeps on killing.
