But do they understand the gravity of that discovery?
Only a little, it is microgravity after all.
Um acshually gravity in the international space station is not that much lower than on the surface of earth, just that they are weightless in orbit.
Wrong. The earth orbits the space station. Ignore the epicyclic motion of other nearby bodies.
Ah, good old relativity. Btw where did you learn about epicycles?
Name any documentary on the history of astrology e.g. The Cosmos
That’s what microgravity means.
I believe microgravity refers things like walking on the moon. Where the moon’s pull on you is far less than than if you were on earth
Nope, that is not so.
Oh, seems I’m wrong, well that’s a bit incongruent if you ask me. Since the force of gravity from earlier isn’t that much lower in low earth orbit :/
Remember that gravity is relative. The earth is accelerating the ISS astronauts same as us, but relative to their inertial system they are weightless. There is no actually there. Relativity is relativity.
Hypothesis, theory, or experiment?
Yes, and in that exact order.
Wouldn’t the hypothesis be first, then tested via experiment, then after a significant amount of peer review finally confirmed as a theory?
You can have a theory that is not corroborated by an empirical experiment.
So, a hypothesis?
Maybe. We need to conduct an experiment to prove that.
Not in science, you can’t. Only in the colloquial versions of those words.
Kinda depends on the context of the word theory. In non-scientific settings you’ll hear people say “I have a theory…” as in they have an idea or speculation.
In a scientific context, a ‘theory’ is a pretty high standard that’s almost interchangeable with a ‘fact’.
I’d be curious to know which of the team did the testing
To quote one line from Netflix’s Inside Job.
JFK: We choose to go to the moon, not because it is easy, but because I am hard.
Haaaaahd
Did that get uncancelled by any chance?
False. Leg position is different, one allows additional bracing. NASA virgins caught red handed.
This person fucks.
How would one allow additional bracing? You can use the same amount of bracing for both, just depends on where the bracing surfaces are. What am I missing?
In space, you are the bracing surface.
I mean… you’d be doing it on a ship. And there’d be stuff to hold on to.
“No not the networking equipment!”
Still, different angle of attack.
🤣🤣🤣
I’m trying to imagine how to do either, while having the posture of the other. It’s not only legs…
Also movement axis is variable in one and mostly fixed in the other.
Science has not gone far enough in this case. More research is needed.
We need to go deeper!
Pull back on you nutsack and give her that emergency inch!
You had the perfect word to fit in there and instead you went with “gone”!? Come on man!
- Come on, man!
- Come! On Man!
- Come on man!
It’s all relative yeah?
This is what Einstein was talking about.
Incest?!
depends how hot your cousin is
Only in the South part of space
finally we are getting results.
this is more an epiphany than a discovery… ‘a sudden realization or awareness to the reality of something’
Not if they proved it with a study and collected data!
yes, i would support this endeavor if we must be certain. for science.
so in the history of all space programs what are the odds no one has done the deed? im not sure i believe nasa when they say ‘not us’.
Tbh, it might actually be no one. For one, these are some of the most professional people on the planet - wildest deviations I can think was someone smuggling a sandwich on board, and one of them bringing a gorilla costume.
Two, a lot of being an astronaut is pretty undignified when it comes to waste management, and they can’t just take a shower, so I’d wager whatever sponge bath they’re able to pull off likely leaves a lot to be desired. So, not really prime sexy time.
And physically, sex in zero-g seems like one of those things that sounds fun on paper, but in practice would be a lot of work to the point of not being worth the effort.
…I do wonder what zero-g would do to gestation and development, especially over the course of multiple generations. Probably the kind of thing we should start with mice though - humans take too long.
The soviets tried letting rats breed in zero g but they didn’t seem to manage to copulate. A number of smaller organisms have been able to breed in zero g and/or microgravity including c elegans, fruit flies, and cockroaches. They have shown that mouse IVF is at least theoretically possible (petri dish embryos are possible) but it doesn’t seem that they’ve tried actual breeding since that soviet rat experiment.
One of my favorite theories on classic “grey” aliens is that they look like that due to a native low-gravity environment: big heads and eyes, frail little bodies.
« In space, 69 and 69 are the same thing »
I am volunteering for experimentation to prove this.
Straddle vs ass presented. I don’t see how no gs changes this
If you cum in space no one can hear it
Nobody can hear your boner in space either
but floating cum is interesting. i wonder what the sperm does.
if you were in actual space, you’d be dead
if you were inside a spaceship, there still is sound because there’s air inside
how do you think the people in the ISS talk?
i’ve heard of jokes going over people’s heads but i think you had to duck
Huh. Well that explains why those are my two favorite positions
Can’t argue with facts
If they are this wrong you can falsify them
just have to adjust the angle of your dangle
