Space: The Final Frontier.

Being slightly, endearingly nerdy, The Boyfriend has this fantasy about sex in space. I am, of course, happy to oblige, although I imagine there will be certain complications.

And apparently I'm right.

While sex in space is now a front and center topic of talk in public space travel circles, it may be far more complex and foreboding than once thought...

“Sex in micro-g might be a little underwhelming. That is, the fantasy might be vastly superior to the reality. It’s a pretty messy environment…for every action there’s an equal and opposite reaction,” [James] Logan told an attentive audience over the weekend at the NewSpace 2006 meeting in Las Vegas, Nevada, sponsored by the Space Frontier Foundation.

Sex in zero-g is going to have to be more or less choreographed, “otherwise it’s just going to be a wild fling,” Logan advised.

Still might be worth a shot.
