A waste collection system is described for use in reduced gravity. The seat has an opening centrally located, with a pair of opposed depressed valleys on opposite sides of the opening for accommodating the ischial tuberosities of a user. The seat has contoured surfaces for providing support of the user's body and includes a prominent ridge towards the rear, which provides forward-aft positioning cue to the user. A curved recess is provided adjacent to the forward portion of the seat for accommodating a tubular urinal having an enlarged open mouth.
