Yay! First baby made in space!!!! /s

“First”? The first crew to be evacuated for a medical emergency? They are extremely happy about being first for that? OP has me confused with their speculation on this photo.
Well that narrows it down a little bit. Ultrasound is used to diagnose a bunch of medical emergencies like internal bleeding (trauma), ectopic pregnancies, appendicitis, gallstones, kidney stones, blood clots (DVT), heart problems (tamponade, low function), aortic aneurysms, pneumonia, and pneumothorax
Congratulations to the little first human conceived in space*
*That we know of
I figured it was a baby as well since they’re super strict about no pregnancies in space.
Knew it was a space baby , someone was naughty up there
Space babies is far, far better than Space rabies… 🤞🏻
How would this have worked out on a trip to Mars?
Why are so many people in this thread assuming it’s a baby? Ultrasounds are used for a variety of diagnosis and aren’t just gimmick tools for pregnancy announcements.
They don’t even need to be specific about the exact location of the issue. But I wish they would identify the generic location this issue was found. They can remove gender entirely. Was it the abdomen, a limb, the chest, head…what?
People, chill. I’ve had like 8 ultrasounds of my leg. It’s never been pregnant, or at risk of being pregnant. Ultrasound doesn’t automatically mean they were checking for pregnancy.
