Dutch entrepreneur, Egbert Edelbroek, is leading the way in groundbreaking space sex research that aims to enable natural conception and birth in the partial gravity environment witnessed on Mars. Edelbroek’s firm, Spaceborn United, has initiated a project to conceive embryos in space, starting with mice and eventually progressing to human sperm and egg cells.
To facilitate this, Spaceborn United has developed a disk that enables the mixing of cells in an environment resembling that of a space station. To protect the embryos during re-entry, they are cryogenically frozen.
At present, research is being conducted in simulated partial gravity laboratory conditions, with a planned launch for the end of next year, employing mice cells. Edelbroek estimates that it will take “about five or six years” for the initial launch involving a human embryo. The ethical concerns encompassing space reproduction have largely relegated this topic to private firms, such as Spaceborn.
One of the primary challenges of reproduction in space is the effect of low-gravity environments on bodily fluids, particularly during fetal development. The rise of space tourism has introduced another aspect to space reproduction research, as couples on such flights may wish to conceive and make history.
Importantly, Spaceborn’s research is not limited solely to space; it is also aiding individuals on Earth in their efforts to conceive through the in-vitro fertilization (IVF) process.
Edelbroek is optimistic that a child will be born in space within his lifetime. However, he acknowledges the considerable obstacles that must be overcome in order to achieve this remarkable feat.
This cutting-edge research by Dutch entrepreneur Egbert Edelbroek and his firm, Spaceborn United, is revolutionizing the field of space sex research. With their focus on natural conception and birth in a partial gravity environment, the possibility of a baby being born on Mars is becoming a tangible reality. As the world eagerly watches developments in this groundbreaking endeavor, it is only a matter of time before humanity achieves yet another milestone in the quest to explore space.
