Wouldn't testing astronauts be just as effective? And likely to provide more accurate results?

Course - I'm not entirely sure as to the purpose of the test - yes to test the effects - but how often would you send it up there without - you know - the producer of said samples?

It was clearly so see if they could get away with something so clearly outrageous!  I'd have loved to have been in on that meeting:


"Sir, we have a very exciting proposal for you"


"Let's hear it then, Wilkinson."


"Well, sir... we want to send pig semen into space."


"I'm sorry, Wilkinson.  My hearing must be going.  I thought you said that you wanted to send pig semen into space."


"Yes sir.  That's right.  Spunk.  Cum.  Jizz.  From a pig."


"Good God, man.  Why on earth do you what to do that?"


"Er... Important scientific stuff, sir.  Very high profile."


"I see.  And how much will it cost?"


"Seventeen zillion pounds , sir."


"Oh well in that case, get on with it man!  Anything else?"


"Well, we're kinda interested to see what happens to ear wax when you bombard it with faster than light tetrions..."

ROFLMAO!

You actually caused coffee to shoot from my nostrils with that little bit.

Bravo!

Hmm.  One assumes that you had in fact just taken a sip of coffee rather than being subject to some sort of spontaneous coffee materialisation in your nasal passages.

Well THAT would be worthy of grant money woudln't you say? Research into spontaneous nasal passage coffee materialisation - in space!

The 'in space' part is, of course the most important.  An experiment ain't worth doing if you can't do it in space.  Oh no.  After all, a simple eperiment to see if coffee can spontaneously materialise up someone's nose won't be taken seriously because it just ain't expensive enough.  But you launch that nose into space... and now you have something special.  Something earth-shattering.  Suddenly it matters whether or not coffee can spontaneously materialise up someone's nose... in a zero gravity environment.
