No sex in space says NASA

Have you seen the episode of the Simpsons where Homer goes into space, and opens up a bag of potato chips, and has to float around the shuttle eating them all? That's how.

Totally disgusting. Yet very, very funny!

If anybody ever plans on having sex in space they should bring a bunch of plastic wrap along with some very absorbent material to keep liquids from interfering with the sensitive electronic equipment on board. Or make a sleeping bag for 2 kind of like in National Lampoon's Vacation.

Somewhat off topic, but what if you sweat in Space would it rise to the ceiling or never come out your glands?
 
Sweat would probably stick to your body because of surface tension and evaporate before it becomes a problem. Sudden movements associated with sex may dislodge it though. You make a pretty good point.

Things can't evaporate in space, can they?

I am pretty sure that in the controlled environment inside the ISS, Space Shuttle or Soyuz there is relative humidity. Otherwise the astronauts would slowly dry out kind of like a snail on a very hot day in the sun. All mentioned spacecraft probably have humidifiers and dehumidifiers to keep things comfortable for the crew. However, I am not an engineer so I am making an educated guess.

lol, moon rocks. that was good.

at any rate, there's no doubt in my mind it would be too cumbersome to even sort of try this kind of thing. I'm not so much worried about cleaning it up, so much as doing the act itself.

Jesus, talk about cardio...

Sorry but I just had to laugh at your name with this thread...

"I try and I try"

:p
 
I can't believe this hasn't been mentioned yet (unless I missed it) but there is a whole The Universe episode about the possibility of sex in space. It's on youtube. Here's part 1 and all of the other parts are on the side of the video.
 
Not even if I promise to use a condom?

Anyway, I'm slightly worried about the fact that it is mostly other men that I see on these spaceships. I can't even remember the last hottie I saw in space.

Would Sigourney Weaver and Milla Jovovich count? Both of them usually travel with awful companions.
