Space flights have become a common practice for mankind. What does the future have in store for the human civilization? Excursions to the orbit, or maybe a romantic night in a Martian hotel?

“While a lot of scientists all over the world are busy searching for extraterrestrial civilizations, astronauts plan a more earthly contact, that is conceiving a human baby at the orbital station,” Rostislav Beleda, a Candidate of Medical Sciences said. Mr. Beleda worked as the chief sexologist at the Central Aviation Hospital for 14 years. “The biggest problem is how to conceive, because liquid cannot be spilt under the condition of weightlessness,” he added.
“But they do not need a bed in space. They can love each other in the air.”
“And what will come out of that? As soon as he touches her, she will fly away in the opposite direction. A bed or at least some fastening device on a wall is more likely to be used.”
“Is astronauts’ sexual need taken into consideration during long-term flights?”
“Certainly. In space men exercise on treadmills. In addition, they can theoretically masturbate too. But they should not forget about condoms or other containers, otherwise drop of sperm will be flying chaotically in the cabin and they will have to collect it. As a matter of fact, humans are not eager to make love in space. Right after the take-off a human being experiences a great load, which is six or nine times as bigger as that on Earth. When a spaceship enters the orbit, blood starts flowing from lower parts of the body to the head. A person adapts him- or herself to new conditions within three days. Space does not admit interfering: astronauts get old very quickly. Space flights affect adversely all life functions, especially the reproductive function. None of US female astronauts got pregnant after flights. Soviet cosmonaut Valentina Tereshkova was an exception, though.
“Is that true that astronauts may have disabled children after flights?”
“I can assure you that six healthy children were born after their fathers had traveled into the space. Tereshkova’s daughter is fine as well. However, a problem with potency emerged after one of the first long-term flights into space. A press-conference was broadcast the next day after the flight, but nobody saw that the astronaut was sitting in an armchair with pillows. He had difficulties to hold his head straight and raise a spoon in his hand. Even after his muscle tone and other functions were restored, he still suffered from low potency.
