    hotel rooms

    I’m thinking low-gravity sex.

    The hotel’s early clientele are expected to be participants of previous commercial space flights and rich, adventurous newlyweds looking for an out-of-this-world honeymoon experience.

    Yup.

    “Here’s a thing.”

    Human: “Is there a way in which this can be used for food or sex?”

        Well, the hotel is on the Moon rather than in space, so it’s not really zero-g, just reduced. I think it’s like one-eighth Earth’s gravity?

        A bit more.

        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitation_of_the_Moon

        The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Moon is approximately 1.625 m/s2, about 16.6% that on Earth’s surface or 0.166 ɡ.[1]

        History of attempts

        NASA has stated that it knows of no intercourse in space.[25]

          Oh god, they literally have one of those simpleshow videos in a Wikipedia article…

          What I’ve never understood is the difficulty with blood pressure, as in you don’t have gravity pulling the blood down to the nether regions, making it hard to keep an erection. But how is that any different from when you’re lying down?
