Well it was only a matter of time before somebody came up with the idea. Space sex! Not just the behavior, but the video.
Apparently an unidentified party approached Virgin Galactic with an offer to pay $1 million dollars for the opportunity to make a sex video in space. Virgin Galactic is a private company that is promising to transport wealthy tourists to space for $200,000 a seat. Fortunately, Will Whitehorn, the president of Virgin Galactic, had the good sense to turn the offer down.
As mankind voyages beyond the Earth's atmosphere for prolonged periods of time to distant destinations throughout our solar system people will... well, behave like people. One can only wonder how long it will be before men and women do what they have been doing for millennium... if, in fact, they haven't already done so inside the International Space Station.
Beyond the question of morality is the ever pervading curiosity of what effects weightlessness would have not just upon the act of intercourse, but upon the product of such a union should conception occur. Would the constant bombardment of solar radiation and the absence of gravity have a detrimental influence upon the development of the fetus? Would such a child be able to grow up to be a normal healthy human being? Would children conceived on the Moon and Mars be mutants?
In the decades ahead, should mankind succeed in its ambition to colonize regions of our solar system, what place will children hold? Stay tuned, you won't have to watch a space sex video to find out.
