Answer: No.
Also: still no.
Settle down, Disneyphiles.
How about let couple astronaut fuck in space and see if they can get pregnant? Wtf is this?
The point of this experiment is the long-term preservation and storage of genetic material, not to answer whether or not we can reproduce in zero gravity. You’re familiar with the concept of a seed vault? It’s the same idea, just a different kind of seed.
That being said, who wants to bear the risk of medical complications from pregnancy 250 miles above the ground? It would not be an ethical experiment to intentionally do this. That being said, if it happened anyways despite protocol, you can bet your ass they’ll collect as much data about the pregnancy as possible.
Space mouse sperm, yummy
So you’re saying it’s a future food source? That seems impractical somehow.
Unless it’s one huge and easily-pleasured space mouse.
Why go with one large mouse? What if we had a ring, like Saturn, but made of space mice instead of rocks?
at this point I’m just proud we did something that doesn’t appear to worsen global warming.
