That's because there is none.

No. You really should do a little research on your own before asking
such questions here. In case you haven't noticed, you haven't been
making many friends here, despite it being a pretty friendly group. And
the patience of the few of us who haven't killfiled you yet is wearing thin.
BTW, if you "were always told" that astronauts carry cyanide, you were
always told wrong.

Just try looking up "CEV" on Google. You should learn a lot. Then
feel free to ask intelligent questions...
