JAKARTA - The United States Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) stated that so far no astronauts have had sexual relations in space. This is because the process can be quite complicated due to microgravity.

However, the Japanese sex aid company, Tenga, is planning to send sex toys to outer space. Not just a promotion, Tenga also collaborated with civil aerospace company Interstellar Technologies to send the Tenga rocket into space this year.

The Tenga rocket is expected to lift off from the Hokkaido Space Port in Japan in August 2021 if there are no obstacles.

It is known, this sex toy delivery project has two goals. First, this mission will study the effect of space on sex toys. Tenga said he wanted to be the first sex toy company to develop sex toys for use in outer space.

To get there it is necessary to figure out how to make it work in a microgravity environment. Tenga is also studying how to prevent lubricant and semen from leaching and damaging multi-million dollar equipment. Second, send 1,000 letters written by people who helped fund the ambitious project.

"The Tenga rocket will carry messages from fans and supporters of our project into space as a message of love and freedom from people around the world," said Tenga President Koichi Matsumoto as quoted by Sputniknews, Monday, July 26.

In fact, this issue has been a matter of debate for a long time. Some health experts say that NASA must address sexual health issues in space. Because, astronauts will spend more time in space than on Earth. However, NASA has not presented this solution until now.
