To our surprise, the month of March has been a real month of publicity for highly advertised bullfights. We foolishly thought the climax of the month was achieved with the “hand sanitizer cam” a couple of weeks ago, and all the news adjacent to the semen would have to wait while the world leaned in a tired stupor and recharged. But now we know that a group of scientists at the University of Arizona have proposed blowing a large load of sperm and egg samples into the moon.
The plan was drafted at this year’s Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Aerospace Conference, long known as the most erotic engineering conference. In a video of the event (SFW despite its numerous terrible references to “lunar pits” and “lava tubes””) the University of Arizona team proposed creating a “modern ark” beneath the surface of the moon that contained a biological treasure of animal fluids.
The ark would consist of a giant sperm bank, submerged in some of the many holes in the moon etched in lava in order to preserve the genetic material in case the Earth is annihilated by events inside or outside the control of humanity. . Because these moons are protected from temperature changes and radiation, they offer an ideal storage solution for the reproductive tract that allows life to continue.
The Arizona team suggests that advanced robots would be needed to be able to move through extremely cold lunar pits and manipulate samples. We don’t know to what extent all of this is feasible because our formal science education stopped before the phase that allows you to formulate concepts like “fill the moon with semen”. Regardless, you know what they say: Shoot the moon and your rocket full of a huge library of frozen semen should at least end up among the stars.
