When Shannon Lucid was on Mir breaking records, her biggest complaint was that the cosmonauts smoked endless stinky Russian cigarettes.
I once talked directly to cosmonauts on the Mir station every time they overflew Kuwait in the first Gulf war instructing them on how to use and where to point their video camera with a ginormous lens so we could see where the B52's were flying and where the oil well fires were. Some were in Saudia. Little known facts.
And you don't think I am a Geek.....

I think, by definition, everyone here has a little geek in them.
Not only does NASA think about sex in orbit and long term, they are exploring solutions.
I have no problem at all, with the military advantage of controlling space.
There is more than one launchpad in Florida, and elsewhere.
