Sex-in Space
Dr Levin has found that little is known about sexual physiology in space, and how people’s bodies work in these unusual conditions. “There’s the effect of the absence of gravity; the effect of radiation; and the effect of being caught up in the very small environment with a lot of other people. All these things are going to have effects on human sexuality and reproduction. At the moment the attitude is: don’t have sex in space because we can’t cope with it. But sooner or later it’s going to be a much greater problem, when we have long voyages – say three years to Mars.
