Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
hotel rooms
I'm thinking low-gravity sex.
The hotel's early clientele are expected to be participants of previous commercial space flights and rich, adventurous newlyweds looking for an out-of-this-world honeymoon experience.
Yup.
"Here's a thing."
Human: "Is there a way in which this can be used for food or sex?"
They’re going to need a padded room. I suspect sex in zero g is not what people expect it to be.
Well, the hotel is on the Moon rather than in space, so it's not really zero-g, just reduced. I think it's like one-eighth Earth's gravity?

A bit more.

The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Moon is approximately 1.625 m/s2, about 16.6% that on Earth's surface or 0.166 ɡ.[1]

History of attempts
NASA has stated that it knows of no intercourse in space.[25]
Oh god, they literally have one of those simpleshow videos in a Wikipedia article...
What I've never understood is the difficulty with blood pressure, as in you don't have gravity pulling the blood down to the nether regions, making it hard to keep an erection. But how is that any different from when you're lying down?
I bet it happened.
The moon isn’t zero G.
I can sell you a Moon hotel reservation for 900k.
"a proprietary habitation modules system and automated process for transforming lunar soil into durable structures"
Smells like bullshit to me.
yep it is, but mine is very real and only 500k euros! Send me money, details are coming later
You gotta go the other way and double the cost. Eventually if you do that right, you’ll have enough cash to actually build it.
It’s the Elon grift.
Would anyone like to live on the moon for minimum wage and mop wads off the ceilings every day?
