Packing for Mars author Mary Roach debunks an alleged NASA study on sex positions in a zero gravity orbital environment. "It's the greatest hoax on the Internet," she says. Roach also recalls what cosmonaut Aleksandr Laveykin, who spent 174 days in space, had to say on sex in space.
-----
She took us into the world of cadavers and examined the anatomy, physiology and psychology behind sex. Now, Mary Roach discovers the surreality and weirdness of space.
For example, what happens when you've been in space for a year? And is it possible for a human body to survive a bailout at 17,000 miles per hour? From the space shuttle training toilet to NASA's crash simulation tests, Roach explores the strange universe. - Commonwealth Club

36,593 views Sep 11, 2021 Ancient history: Is The True History Of The World Hidden From Us? The Arcturians are a group consciousness extraterrestrial race that is highly evolved and come from the blue planet orbiting the red giant star Arcturus in the Bootes constellation. Arcturus is about 36 light-years from our solar system. Astronomers have yet to take the discovery of the arcturians solar system around a system composed of Arcturus and Pleiades. Arcturians are a Galactic civilization renowned for their ability to heal instantly. This is possible because they’ve grasped one concept. They know thoughts become things and have mastered the manifestation ability to do this instantly. Thoughts becoming things is a concept that humans are picking up on in the masses now. Products are entering the marketplace infused with Arcturian healing, and they are powerfully effective! The products are profound because the Arcturians have mastered the conscious mind and the energy it controls.
210,102 views Sep 21, 2021 NASA’s future will continue to be a story of human exploration, science, engineering and technology. Working together, we define the future, achieve the impossible and discover the unknown.
With our Artemis missions, NASA will land the first woman and first person of color on the Moon, using innovative technologies to explore more of the lunar surface than ever before. We will collaborate with commercial and international partners and establish the first long-term presence on the Moon. Then, we will use what we learn on and around the Moon to take the next giant leap: sending the first astronauts to Mars.
We will continue to nurture the development of a vibrant low-Earth orbit economy that builds on the work done to date by the International Space Station. Commercial companies will play an increasing role in the space industry: launching rockets and satellites, transporting cargo and crew, building infrastructure in low-Earth orbit.
NASA research and missions are essential to the future of Earth. The unique vantage point of space allows us to better understand Earth’s systems and use that knowledge to live sustainably on our home planet, protect life around the world, and adapt to natural and human-caused changes. Our data and observations will help protect our home planet.
Our James Webb Space Telescope will peer farther into the Universe than ever before. Our scientists will work to increase an understanding of our planet, our solar system and our place in the universe. We will continue to try to answer the question, “Are we alone?”
