AI Thread Summary
The discussion explores the intriguing idea of the Soviets potentially creating a "space baby," fueled by their extensive space missions and lack of ethical constraints regarding reproductive practices. Participants speculate on the physiological effects of zero gravity on fetal development and the implications for maternal health. The conversation also touches on NASA's involvement in similar experiments, suggesting that astronauts may have engaged in sexual activities in space, leading to the possibility of conception. Humor and myth intertwine as members reflect on the concept of space-born children and the unique challenges of reproduction in a microgravity environment. The topic raises questions about the intersection of science, ethics, and human experience in space exploration.

Who could ignore the temptation of life conceived and grown in utero, in spatio? The Soviets had the opportunuity and the motive. (They also had over 2 billion abortions under their belts, so no problems with ethics.) What came of these purported space children (not "hippies," comrade)?

The amnionic sea may already have provided all of us the benefit of a semi-weightless state, but not zero-G. The effects upon the mother must be Miriad; just consider fetal bone formation from an osteoporific Matrushka. The woman's weightless condition would secondhandedly deprive the child multifold nutrients via the placenta.

You heard the myth of Mir here; what are your thoughts? :-p

The Soviets spent a lot of time up there. It is an interesting notion.
 
And having sex in a 0G environment must also be... interesting.
 
I am the Soviet's space baby.
 
I knew it!

Note to self: Don't make any more space babies.

Sex in a 5g environment is also interesting but the problem...oh...never mind.

What do you think FZ, Zooby? I even remember NASA winking when asked if they had engaged in space nooky experiments. I think it was a married couple, both astronauts that went up on the shuttle.
 
Nasa astronauts positively created a space baby. It can be seen floating weightless in its little baby space suit here:

Remember the image at the end of 2001: A Space Oddessy? Where do you think they got that picture from?
