Couples want otherworldly experiences

Once the Soviets and the Americans took part in a space race. Nowadays couples wanting to have intercourse in space are competing.

The idea of doing it in unusual places took off when companies emerged which wanted to make commercial flights to space. The president of one such company Will Whitehorn said: “We’ve had a variety of people inquire about it. One got in touch about a charter flight so they could be the first to have sex in space and get in the Guinness Book of Records.“ There was also supposedly a film industry offer. The people at Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic company hope that they will start sending tourists into space next year.

Scientists are giving us an opinion which is a little more down to earth. The planned flights will offer only five minutes of zero gravity, which is not much for a real sexual adventure. Dr. James Logan, expert for medicine in zero gravity suggests that it would be better to wait until the flights to Mars. Mars’s gravity would also offer an interesting and unforgettable experience.
