- you didn't !! ...you did lol. I saw this item in the "real" news. This isn't just near future, this is like today. I bet there's a couple up there right now trying to at least make the zero-g attempt in one of those parabolic planes.

- Makes me think of that Northern Exposure episode where the couples from Japan tried to conceive under the Northern Lights. Thinking SpaceWeather.com will soon have forecasts for the best celestial events under which to conceive for maximum ___<user input>____ and good fortunes. What a scream !!

I do believe they are speculating about this in our shared prime line. But I did have to travel to a future, not too far from here, to find this piece. While parabolic promiscuity, sounds like fun, the body is protected by our atmosphere. Outer space includes the risk of radiation exposure, which is one of the concerns with getting jiggy in the great beyond.

On a more serious note, it's great to see that ectogenesis is getting some additional play. I really think that's the future of pregnancy.
