| Mar 26, 2018 at 18:20 | comment | added | James Jenkins | Related Is it possible to get pregnant through natural means in space? which indicates it is unlikely there would be a live birth in space, even if mom was not returned to Earth as pointed out by @OrganicMarble. | |

| Mar 21, 2018 at 12:25 | comment | added | Organic Marble | Because of the unknown developmental effects on the child. | |
| Mar 21, 2018 at 11:48 | comment | added | Future Historian | @DJohnM. To answer your question, yes. As in: this child was conceived and born in space for our purposes. | |
| Mar 21, 2018 at 11:47 | comment | added | Future Historian | @OrganicMarble. Why, though? | |
| Mar 21, 2018 at 0:20 | comment | added | Organic Marble | I realize it's not really the nub of your question, but I'm reasonably sure that the expectant mom would be evac'd back to Earth as soon as the test showed positive. space.stackexchange.com/questions/8569/… | |
| Mar 20, 2018 at 17:47 | comment | added | DJohnM | Did the birth occur significantly more than nine months after the mother reached the ISS? | |

| Mar 20, 2018 at 14:32 | comment | added | Future Historian | @Edlothiad. Is there an international treaty dealing with that? Because I do not see any considerations for that in the Outer Space Treaty of 1967. :( | |
| Mar 20, 2018 at 14:23 | comment | added | Edlothiad | @gerrit I'm guessing it would be the same, as mentioned in this quora Q&A, I don't think it matters whether it's International Waters, International Airspace or International Space... space. | |
| Mar 20, 2018 at 14:14 | comment | added | gerrit | Any reason to expect it to be different than people born in the air or at sea? In many cases, the child would get the citizenship of the parents. | |
