While several Nasa missions have involved mixed crews, a secret report by the space agency suggests that missions to Mars could be all-female.
Speaking at a conference today, British astronaut, Helen Sharman, claimed that Nasa has filed a report that warns that male and female astronauts could get frisky during the one and a half year journey to the red planet.
The report claims that all-female crews would be the best option, as women work better as a team, and are less likely than men to fight over who is the leader.
Ms Sharman has never seen the report herself, but suggests that it was filed 'some years ago.'

Send Rosie O’Donnell.
Mostly just oxygen and water.
Girly mags.
I like the mature couple idea. They are likely to be stable, and will already probably be experienced astronauts. No guarantees that they will end up as a sweet old couple, but the odds are better than with any other combo. God knows what he is doing and he designed marriage.
All time classic!
The intent is not to avoid sex but to avoid procreation.
Better, and wiser, to put infant supplies on board.
Wait until their cycles align and we’ll be glad that their up there and not down here!
Meow, cat fights in space!
. If they don’t want sex to happen, NASA can just send married couples. There’s nothing like wedding cake for putting an end to sex.

You would be speaking to yourself.

Got news for them. Zero-g on zero-g action will be happening no matter what the gender mix. Just like prison, a year and a half locked up like that people will totally go gay for the stay.

BS: whenever you get more the 2 women involved with anything there is always drama lots of drama every time.
Whoever wrote that report is a misandrist.
If a male astronaut identifies as a female can he go too?
They already sent a m..., better stop while I’m ahead
What NASA needs is a better propulsion system that can accelerate and decelerate the craft during the entire flight. I believe that would make the trip a few weeks or months. We always heard about ion drives and nuclear propulsion, why are none of those feasible?
