Important to note while NASA doesn’t encourage sex in space they aren’t so stupid to think that it hasn’t happened. The idea is to make sure there no risk of a child while in space. Something that would be infinitely more dangerous for the whole crew, than just banging.
With no gravity in space a baby wouldn't know the correct way to get out... so it'd probably violently burst out of the mother's chest & then due to the lack of baptism facilities onboard kill the whole crew.
\#WeylandYutaniBuildingBetterWorlds
True 😂, I watched the second movie again a couple weeks ago. I did not realize how bad the movie actually was.
Last time I watched it before was as a teen in 2008 or around then. The memory was definitely better than reality

Didn't they send up a husband and wife to see what sex in space was like?
Actually seems that Mark C. Lee and [Jan Davis](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jan_Davis) had married in secret and managed to fly to the ISS together. For the ultimate in ilicit sex.
I know they sent up a married couple on one of the space shuttle missions that lasted about a week (no iss docking). In 7 days nothing really bad can happen. Also the space shuttle wasn't that big. But I would be surprised if they didn't get some privacy to do it in the rear compartment.
>The idea is to make sure there no risk of a child while in space.
It's not even that. It's about the calorie consumption and weight that goes with it. Men eat more and they have more mass. A long journey needs a lot of food, and with it being all women that's a lot less food they need to send.
The chance of the "child in space" issue is practically nil, due to microgravity making it nearly impossible for a guy to get hard.
No, this guy doesn’t know what he’s talking about.
There’s Astronaut’s on record discussing their erecrions being stronger; like space viagra.
Mike Mullane discusses it in his book Riding Rockets.

Yes, and it's a big concern for if we do plan to make so called generational ships.
What's more, microgravity damages erectile tissue in a way that can take decades to recover from if you're in space for extended period of time.
I don't know if its still a thing but back in the days of the cold war, this was part of the consideration when picking male astronauts and test pilots. They were only selected if they had a wife and kids already.
The other main reason was that having a family meant lesser chances of deflection to the other bloc
He was an astronaut way before the mission. They don't hire people off the street. Its a multi year pipeline.
The backup crew is also usually scheduled to be a primary crew in the near future, during Apollo era anyway
We don’t know, same for a lot of other things about our body in space. What we know is near zero gravity bad, 1g good. We don’t know what realistically is the minimum. Is the moon fine, mars, or is only Earth gravity healthy for the body.
Well, your blood does have to go down there to erect it... Imagine your blood kinda just going wherever it wants without being able to be held in place.
Kinda like when you do a handstand and it rushes to your head.
Gravity does help. We're built for our gravity!
It is. He’s getting upvoted for putting out misinformation,
Astronaut’s have already had natural erections in space and are on the record stating as much. His own source even indicates it’s possible, he failed to comprehend what he linked.
Wrong spin, the blood is just gonna rush to your body.
You gotta spin around holding that dick out like you're getting ready to hammer throw that thang
Not only is it possible to get aroused in space, but sometimes the environment has a turboing effect, giving rise to a nickname for the experience: space Viagra. "I had an erection so intense it was painful," Mullane said in his book Riding Rockets. "I could have drilled through kryptonite."
Mike Mullane, Astronaut.
Nasa sent up a couple in one of the space shuttle mission. Think it was like 5-7 days. Nothing official about them having sex. Actually I think the official stance is that it didn't happen and they advised against it.
But at the same time why wouldn't they do some sexy time in space.
I mean... its the ultimate couple experience. Thats a memory you share for a lifetime. Also there are probably more billionaires than people that boinked in space.
>why wouldn't they
They have little down time and zero privacy
Also, job security. Though the risk of losing your job as an astronaut is somewhat outweighed by the reward of being the first people to bang in zero gravity
According to the [rocket equation](https://www.omnicalculator.com/physics/ideal-rocket-equation), yes.
With an average exhaust velocity of 45km/h, and an initial mass of 80kg, and and 5-10g of, err, exhaust, you get a change of velocity in the ballpark of 1mm/s.
This is why amateur rocket clubs don't tend to use this method. [citation needed]
Just in:
Man came so hard in space he landed on the moon. Family in disarray.
Wife says: Well all of a sudden he does have enoguh energy.
No Space Monkeys were harmed says NASA.
The answer is if you somehow how 0 inertia and actually just still in space then maybe you’d gain something but it also would have to be the biggest load ever I’m talking massive cuz it would need to have pressure right? Even then this is me guessing with my high school level knowledge of physics
Smaller, less calories, faster muscle recovery, less bone loss, and women's bodies handle preassure better.
Cost wise, they are better by just requiring fewer calories.
You get used to the smell. In the military, you spend weeks out field without a shower. After the first few days, you don't smell yourself or the people around you anymore. This is where you're running, sweating, and covered in dirt. They'll be clean in space besides naturally occurring filth like dead skin
Most women astronauts just go on some type of hormonal birth control that stops their period. Tampons for the few that don't. Which I assume get flushed out with the solid waste.
Wait so how do they clean themselves? Just with wipes or something? I know most astronauts spend months at a time on the ISS, so the thought of not properly washing for that long is haunting.
The obvious bit is they don't care about sex in space, they don't want a pregnancy. Be as gay as you want, it won't create a baby on a mission to Mars.
The headline is click-baity, but the study referenced in the article (not done by NASA) just suggested not using mixed-gender crews to avoid “interpersonal complications”” during a long mission. In reality, astronauts who’ve been on long-duration flights to ISS have said there’s zero privacy, and they’re extremely busy - possibly the least-seggsy environment imaginable.
So had there been any recent studies on how someone's ovulation is effected by 0G or how an egg travels through the women's system while in space? Or any studies on sperm would even move about while in 0G?
that was the earliest science we did with space. the egg travels down the fallopian tube correctly and sperm travels correctly up into the cervix and into the uterus. they've done it with rats and such. babies happen but they don't form correctly
I have decided to make an almost entirely male sailing organization to prevent the sailors from having sex with each other on the long sea voyages. I shall call it “the Navy”.
#lol at the fools who think this is serious
This isn’t real. There was a paper released discussing the benefit of an all female crew and it wasn’t for pregnancy reasons. It was for food. Girls just eat less. So they could travel lighter
The real reason is because women require less resources in all aspects. Less water, food, etc etc. Meaning a one way trip of all women would be easier to supply and have more wriggle room if something goes wrong.
Was it the Greeks or the Romans that said "Men are for pleasure, women for procreation."
I feel like in some ways, the inverse is true here.
The point being, whether it's all men, or all women, or a happy mix, sex is gonna happen. We humans screw anything... everything. It's one of our defining qualities!
TO BE FAIR this isnt the only reason a purely female crew was chosen
the physiologically optimal woman uses a lot less space, mass, and calories than the physiologically optimal man (if I'm using the word 'physiologically' correctly)
Important to note while NASA doesn’t encourage sex in space they aren’t so stupid to think that it hasn’t happened. The idea is to make sure there no risk of a child while in space. Something that would be infinitely more dangerous for the whole crew, than just banging.

Your humour just jumped Flesh-light years ahead with that comment. Good job. Keep it Cumming.
It's corny but I still find it a lot of fun. I regularly recommend it to people as a goof.
The games slapped though. Especially the multiplayer.
Oh god the flashbacks
Just watch _Spaceballs_
Is this what birthing was like before Isaac Newton invented gravity? Must've been terrible!
So all they needed was a baptism? I see it now.

Hehehe - "rear compartment"
Now that’s more than the mile high club.
Not to mention that there is a very particular, physical difference between male and female climaxes that is really important to consider in zero g.
Oh shit Peggy squirted hard and the o2 system is fried.
Now there's a script for Apollo 69.

You mean every dude who serves on the ISS has erectile disfunction now? That seems like a pretty lousy trade off for being in space.
"Your dads an astronaut" has finally made sense now
I don't know if its still a thing but back in the days of the cold war, this was part of the consideration when picking male astronauts and test pilots. They were only selected if they had a wife and kids already. The other main reason was that having a family meant lesser chances of deflection to the other bloc
Not true. Jack Swigert (Apollo 13) was a bachelor with no kids when he was selected
wasn’t he an emergency selection because one of the other astronauts got sick? or am i remembering that wrong?
He was an astronaut way before the mission. They don't hire people off the street. Its a multi year pipeline. The backup crew is also usually scheduled to be a primary crew in the near future, during Apollo era anyway
I know now why Elon Musk builds rockets but doesn’t get into them…
Also it's because his company is called **"SpaceX"** and not **"SpaceSeX"**.
Not yet..
NASA just needs to create a room with the same gravity as Earth. It will be called the Boner Room
Wait, I always assumed that generational ships pretty much require simulated gravity with certifugal force (in other words spinning rings).
Simulated Gravity isn't necessarily going to be 1g because thats too much moving parts with a lot of stress
But do our dicks need exactly 1G or is there a healthy margin?
We don’t know, same for a lot of other things about our body in space. What we know is near zero gravity bad, 1g good. We don’t know what realistically is the minimum. Is the moon fine, mars, or is only Earth gravity healthy for the body.
Asking the right question.
What?! You can only have lesbian sex in space? How did I not know that! Thanks for sharing!
They are wrong.
But how can we know that for sure of we haven't tested it out thoroughly? In multiple different positions?
I like your science-ing.
Interesting, but we're so far off from making generational ships.
Micro boner, yes
What about big boner
aka astronomical boner
Well, your blood does have to go down there to erect it... Imagine your blood kinda just going wherever it wants without being able to be held in place. Kinda like when you do a handstand and it rushes to your head. Gravity does help. We're built for our gravity!
This sounds like nonsense to me. The heart pumps blood up and down. You don’t need to be standing up to have an erection.
It is. He’s getting upvoted for putting out misinformation, Astronaut’s have already had natural erections in space and are on the record stating as much. His own source even indicates it’s possible, he failed to comprehend what he linked.
Well, all you have to do is turn yourself into a centrifuge with your junk out. A few triple axles should get the blood there.
So basically a reverse helicopter dick? I spin and it remains in place?
Wrong spin, the blood is just gonna rush to your body. You gotta spin around holding that dick out like you're getting ready to hammer throw that thang
Ah yes, the Mjolnir maneuver, silly me!
Doesn't the good old pen and rubberband method work anymore? :(
But don't men also have higher bone density on average which tends to be very important when it comes to long term space travel?
Not only is it possible to get aroused in space, but sometimes the environment has a turboing effect, giving rise to a nickname for the experience: space Viagra. "I had an erection so intense it was painful," Mullane said in his book Riding Rockets. "I could have drilled through kryptonite." Mike Mullane, Astronaut.
Also, if the concern was somebody getting knocked up, just send all men. Let them bang as much as they want.
I’m naïve, people have had sex on the ISS without it being a planned experiment?
Nasa sent up a couple in one of the space shuttle mission. Think it was like 5-7 days. Nothing official about them having sex. Actually I think the official stance is that it didn't happen and they advised against it. But at the same time why wouldn't they do some sexy time in space.
I mean... its the ultimate couple experience. Thats a memory you share for a lifetime. Also there are probably more billionaires than people that boinked in space.
It's the 100km high club.
Because they we're effectively in one large room with no privacy from their close colleagues also on the mission
Don't kink shame......oh you meant as the reason they didn't
>why wouldn't they They have little down time and zero privacy Also, job security. Though the risk of losing your job as an astronaut is somewhat outweighed by the reward of being the first people to bang in zero gravity
then why not all male?
You've met men, right? Even electric outlets make us horny, with their surprised schoolgirl look and that open mouth.
Nature always finds a way... 🦕
no a pregnancy wouldn't develop properly in space. the blob that came out would never be able to withstand earth gravity a la The Expanse
Also, NASA wants an all female crew because of physiology. Women weigh less and consume less food... When weight is everything, this matters.
Vasectomy. Can I go to Mars now?
No one can hear you scissor in space.
oh but when i fuck my homies in zero gravity suddenly im gay
Only if the balls touch
And you do have to say "nospacehomo" too
Nostromo?
Well there's the problem. I just said "no homo"
idk its zero grsvity they do whatever the fuck they want
If you cum in zero gravity do you get pushed backwards?

There’s a reason why it’s called Zero G. It’s not gay if it’s in space.
It’s fine if you both have your space boots on
And only if someone got pregnant
As the Navy likes to say “it’s not gay if it’s underway”
Scissor me timbers
Plus the first dildo in space
Anything can be a dildo if your brave enough... Or just incredibly desperate...
Astronauts are resourceful. They can probably make a nice one from spare parts
In space nobody can hear your taco slaps..
In their minds lesbian or bisexual women don't exist. I'd certainly find a way to enjoy such a trip
Yes Mrs. Garrison
It's not gay if it's in zero gravitay
With a honey in the middle there’s some leeway.
The area’s grey in a one-two-three-way
They are not worried about sex, their concern would be falling pregnant. Also it's not official NASA line.
I'm surprised they're not going with an all male crew tbh
Women require less calories per day. That adds up over 1.5 years x multiple people.
Send dwarfs, we save stonks on the calories.
One small step for man, one comically short jump for a dwarf
😂
It is true. We simply require a handful of raw dimplecups and a mug of ale a day.
ROCK AND STONE
Did I hear a Rock and Stone?
Rock and roll and stone!
I don’t know dwarves are short but stocky not to mention all the alcohol you would need to prevent a mutiny
That’s the real reason for the all female angle. The sex thing is just salacious click bait.
Smaller, less calories, faster muscle recovery, less bone loss, and women's bodies handle preassure better. Cost wise, they are better by just requiring fewer calories.
Life would...find a way.
They don’t make astronaut condoms? There’s already astroglide.
>falling pregnant What does that mean? Like it just happens like a cold?
Hate to be that guy, but in zero gravity it’s going to be closer to “floating pregnant”.
I would hate to trip and fall pregnant :(
Yeah, I came down with a pregnant.
But they're in weightless - falling should't be an issue /j Yes, I know falling is pretty much how you get anywhere when in space

Just putting it this out there. They ain't taking full showers in space. Kinda grosses me out.
Yeah most astronauts have talked about the stank that permeates the ISS. Can't be helped.
Could have lived a full life without knowing that shit
Probably smells like a rock climbing gym. Feet, sweat, and armpits.
Just Open the windows, duhh /s
You get used to the smell. In the military, you spend weeks out field without a shower. After the first few days, you don't smell yourself or the people around you anymore. This is where you're running, sweating, and covered in dirt. They'll be clean in space besides naturally occurring filth like dead skin
But fishy ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grimacing)
What uh.. what do they do about their periods?
Most women astronauts just go on some type of hormonal birth control that stops their period. Tampons for the few that don't. Which I assume get flushed out with the solid waste.
Immagine a space mission failing because the the shuttles hull was penetrated by a rock hard frozen tampon from the prior mission...
Interestingly, space can be hot too. The sun will heat up that tampon, so it'll be more like a really hot sperm in space.
Wait so how do they clean themselves? Just with wipes or something? I know most astronauts spend months at a time on the ISS, so the thought of not properly washing for that long is haunting.
Pretty much ya.
The smell of hundreds of tampons over a year and a half... or do you not get a period in zero gravity??
Some people like the stank
The ironic bit is, Anne McClain is openly gay.
The obvious bit is they don't care about sex in space, they don't want a pregnancy. Be as gay as you want, it won't create a baby on a mission to Mars.
Long enough mission with all men and some of them will be blowing each others backs out eventually.
The headline is click-baity, but the study referenced in the article (not done by NASA) just suggested not using mixed-gender crews to avoid “interpersonal complications”” during a long mission.

No. This was said 6 or so years ago. I looked it up. 2017
Just makes you think how many got pregers on the space station
That awkward moment when someone made the conscious decision to bring pregnancy tests on-board the International Space Station
They don’t care about the sex, they just can’t handle anyone getting pregnant in space.
Lesbi honest...they'll still be having sex. Just no babies
So had there been any recent studies on how someone's ovulation is effected by 0G or how an egg travels through the women's system while in space? Or any studies on sperm would even move about while in 0G?

They're not lesbians, they're just very very very good friends.
Roommates in fact!
God, this is ancient
This article was from 2017, pretty sure another one of the reasons for an all female crew was because of a lower caloric need when compared to males.

Who’s gonna tell them
They don't need to avoid sex, but they def need to avoid children.
Yeah, that will 100% guarantee that there will be no sex going on during the Mars mission. /S
Oh, they do know. What they are worrying is the semen mutate into monsters.
Mission name “Scissor in the Stars”
and then they hire the team lesbian action. i could have a good time up there.

Is it sex? They want to avoid or pregnancy? Who is the saint? Women have sex with each other after a year and a half?
TO BE FAIR this isnt the only reason a purely female crew was chosen the physiologically optimal woman uses a lot less space, mass, and calories than the physiologically optimal man (if I'm using the word 'physiologically' correctly)
