Has an astronaut ever gotten pregnant in space?

No, an astronaut has never gotten pregnant in space.

According to available information, this has not occurred primarily because of two factors:

  • Lack of Sexual Activity: As the reference points out, "nobody has reportedly had sex in space yet".
  • Mission Policies: Space agencies prohibit pregnant women from participating in missions.

As space travel becomes more accessible to tourists, and as humanity considers long-term space colonization, the possibility of pregnancy in space becomes increasingly relevant. However, currently, it remains a hypothetical scenario.
