Both men and women have been going into space for several years, so it begs the question has anyone ever had?

Question

sex in space? Either for some experiment or for fun?

Answer 1

In fact there is quite a bit of privacy for astronauts on various long-term space enclosures, including Mir and the ISS. The unofficial word is that sex has been a routine event when members of both sexes have been in these environments together. Of course there is no official record of these encounters in most cases.

In the mid-1990s, the Russians actually conducted an experiment with a married couple who were scientists on the Mir space station. The object of the experiment was to see how easy or otherwise it was for a woman to become pregnant in zero gravity. It turned out to be impossible or nearly so. Apparently spermatazoans need gravity to orient themselves so they can move in the right direction and attach to the ovum correctly.

The word on the street was that after an extended period with no pregnancy on the station, the couple returned to earth, and the wife became pregnant soon after. So size may matter, but so does gravity.

Answer 2

no and people have been going to space for 40 years

Answer 3

I can tell you this,if I was an astronaut I sure would have but I would have kept my mouth shut about it.
They don"t send idiots into space!

Answer 4

I believe that's covered by NASA's "don't ask, don't tell" policy.
But seriously, everything they do is monitored and recorded so we probably would have seen video of it on the net if they had.
