Note: “Sex in Space,” pp. 181-183. Science writer G. Harry Stine relates a rumor of one couple's attempts at intercourse in NASA's weightlessness tests who required the help of a third party: ‘They found out that it was nice to have somebody else there to push at the right time and in the right place.’ This is the source of the famous “Three Dolphin Technique.”
