Sex! In Spaaaaaace!!

The Guardian:

US and Russian astronauts have had sex in space for separate research programmes on how human beings might survive years in orbit, according to a book published yesterday…

“The issue of sex in space is a serious one,” he says. “The experiments carried out so far relate to missions planned for married couples on the future International Space Station, the successor to Mir. Scientists need to know how far sexual relations are possible without gravity.”

The title of my post could have been something like “T-minus 10 seconds to Re-Entry” or “Initiate Docking Procedurals”, but they felt too cheesy. Also, if the Missionary Position is impossible, then the end of Moonraker is a lie.
