There’s nothing other than speculation to suggest otherwise. NASA has acknowledged the gaps in what we know about the impacts of long-duration spaceflight. In 2014, for instance, it commissioned a team studded with health experts and retired astronauts to write a National Academies report advising the agency on how best to ethically approach long-duration spaceflight situations where the very nature of the mission would mean that astronauts must violate current NASA workplace safety standards.

New applications for Velcro...
The urge to have sex and reproduce is fundamental to human life. No way astronauts on a long term voyage to Mars and presumably a long stay on the planet will not have sex. That raises lots of questions about all kinds of subjects.
I kinda dont believe nasa on that one.
Can be done on the zero-G flights. From their website: “ 15 parabolas are flown for an approximate weightless time of eight minutes”. More than enough time.
That does it for me. If we can’t have sex in space, then I’m not going.
That would make it interesting, for sure!
That, and the amount of energy required to get anywhere quickly.
Are you bragging? LOL
Have they done any testing of fetal development in zero-G?
Would the kid have bones or just cartilage?
