It turns out we know very, very little about what pregnancy in space might look like, or whether it\\u2019s even possible at all.\\nGuests\\nMaggie Koerth-Baker: senior science writer at FiveThirtyEight\\nKim Stanley Robinson: science fiction author of the Mars trilogy, The Years of Rice and Salt, 2312, Aurora and others, including a new book Red Moon.\\nAnicca Harriot: PhD student at the University of Maryland School of Medicine, advocate for STEM outreach\\n\\u2192 \\u2192 \\u2192 Further reading and sources available at flashforwardpod.com \\u2190\\u2190\\u2190\\nFlash Forward is produced by me, Rose Eveleth.\\nIntro music by Asura\\nOuttro music by Hussalonia.\\nEpisode art by Matt Lubchansky.
