Scientists Say Immediate Research Is Needed About Sex In Space
Can you have sex in space?? It’s likely to become a thing sooner or later. It’s happening, space tourism is inching toward becoming a reality. Scientists are in a hurry to figure out what happens to humans who join the “62-mile-high club” among the stars. Professor of Bioanalytical Technology at Cranfield University, David Cullen, says research is needed quickly to determine the consequences of sex in space.
“Considering that space travel is no longer reserved for professional astronauts, the various motivations of space tourists, and upcoming spacecraft developments, we concluded that in-space sex will probably happen within the next ten years,” he says.
So, what are the burning questions involving this kind of extraterrestrial extracurricular activity? Aside from concerns about actual conception, one mystery has to do with blood flow. Cullen says “There’s no gravity to pull blood into the lower part of the body.” Also, the Daily Mail reports experts have to figure out how 2 people can physically stay together… without floating away.
Of course, there are lots of questions regarding the red room in space too hahaha!
