I thought this was an Star Trek "Empire" meets the Firefly proposal.

Go Firefly though regardless. Curse you short sighted FOX bastards.
On ISS there is. Gotta unwind somehow during those 6 month stints up there.

I don't know about "just" catching it; by the time you were done, the first ejaculate would probably have already hit the wall. But I suppose it would be simple to lay out a cloth or something to float in front of your penis which would catch it.

I should hope so... didn't they have several guys who stayed up for over a year?

I don't know whether the fact that I'm a member of a message board where people ponder the best ways to jack off in freefall a thing to smile or cry about.

This is why I love SD.net. It has the most intresting topics on the web.

Quite possibly but you'd get better performance just by peeing, or taking laxitives. Not to mention it would be difficult to maintain a stable firing position during the ignition phase.
In any case, the various options are going to vastly decrease the pleasantness of whatever space you happen to occupying at the time so you do need to weigh up the pros and cons.
I can see it now, the discussion between the NASA mission controller and the GlavKosmos controller:
NASA guy: "We worked on that problem for years-- how to deal with astronaut ejaculate. We tried all kinds of devices but finally we came up with the hydropneumatic freefall adjustable pocket-carryable vaginal simulator. Darn things cost $1,800.00 a unit, but we finally solved the problem."
GlavKosmos guy: "You know, we had the exact same problem on the Russian spaecraft. Cosmonaut spooge everywhere."
NASA guy: "Oh? How did you solve the problem?"
GlavKosmos guy: "We used a sock."
Something about Libertarianism always bothered me. Then one day, I realized what it was:
Libertarian philosophy can be boiled down to the phrase, "Work Will Make You Free."
In Libertarianism, there is no Government, so the Bosses are free to exploit the Workers.
In Communism, there is no Government, so the Workers are free to exploit the Bosses.
So in Libertarianism, man exploits man, but in Communism, its the other way around! If all you want to do is have some harmless, mindless fun, go H3RE INST3ADZ0RZ!! Grrr! Fight my Brute, you pansy!
