Impregnated By Stray Fluids

Impregnated By Stray Fluids
Houston, we have a... fluid dynamics problem! In zero gravity, liquids don't just fall to the ground—they float around in little spherical blobs, hunting for their next victim! The physics of bodily fluids in space is genuinely wild. Without gravity pulling things down, even the tiniest droplets become free-floating hazards that could theoretically travel anywhere in the spacecraft. NASA engineers actually spend considerable time designing systems to manage all bodily fluids in space—from sweat to tears to, well, other emissions . The idea that "stray fluids" could somehow result in pregnancy is scientifically preposterous but makes for comedy gold. It's like worrying your sneeze might accidentally terraform Mars! Fun fact: Astronauts have special vacuum-based toilets and highly regulated hygiene protocols. Space agencies thought of EVERYTHING before sending humans to orbit. Because nobody wants to be the astronaut who caused an international incident with their floating bodily contributions!

That face when your family thinks your mechanical engineering degree means you're basically a car mechanic. Studying fluid dynamics doesn't mean I know why your Toyota is making that weird noise! Mechanical engineers learn about thermodynamics and stress analysis, not how to unclog your brother-in-law's carburetor. Next time someone asks me to fix their transmission, I'm going to hand them my textbook on differential equations and say "chapter 7 should help."
