I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'astronauts eventually drink' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'waste' is an anagram of 'SWEAT'.

(Other definitions for sweat that I've seen before include "Waste (anag.)" , "Male perspiration?" , "It's hard work" , "Toil" , "(Of argument) intense" .)
