Masturbation can be included in the list of things that are prohibited in a weightless environment.

NASA scientists recently joked that there are strict guidelines on powering up only in weightless conditions.

Space agency contract engineer Smith Marican was recently asked about solo space sex on a podcast with American comedian Conan O’Brien.

Midnight host Conan asked NASA engineers if they had ever sent pornography to the International Space Station. The scientists denied this and claimed that there were rules for masturbation inside the ISS.

“Three female astronauts could be inseminated in the same session… find a way,” joked another comedian, Matt Gorley, who also appeared on the podcast.

From floating fluids to diminished masculinity, it’s understandable that sex and masturbation in space can be a logistical nightmare, but is it on NASA’s no-go list?

We are very skeptical about it.

It is unlikely that NASA had an official opinion on the space force so that it did not get involved in a lonely time on the ISS. Also, the entire topic was brought up in a comedy podcast rather than a rigorous scientific discussion.

Still, as humanity approaches long-range space missions to the Moon and Mars, NASA acknowledged: I was I’m thinking of studying sex in space.

Apparently zero sex is “very important” because astronauts may have to spend years away from Earth.

This was in response to a research proposal from a group of five Canadian academics who called on space organizations to adopt a new discipline called “cosmic science”.

“Understanding sex and how it works in a low-gravity environment is essential for the success of deep space missions and the construction of transspace settlements,” said scientists at Concordia University in Montreal.

Those who go to space for a long time are now professional astronauts, but in the future they may become space travelers, including couples.

NASA has a history of banning sex between astronauts and has previously stated that “no one had sex in space.”

“Our primary concern is the long-term health and safety of the crew in space,” a NASA spokeswoman told Mic.
