London: Astronauts offering etiquette lessons to space tourists have warned them to keep their libidos firmly on the ground, as sex in space could seriously jeopardise missions.
At the International Symposium for Personal Spaceflight in Las Cruces, New Mexico, US, former shuttle astronaut Tom Jones said over queries whether sex in space missions was permissible, that he would “like to leave that for the commercial sector” as “out-of-this-world sex could jeopardise missions”.
