SexToy.com Putting First Vibrator in Space

LOS ANGELES—On Oct. 8, online sex toy sales leader SexToy.com, will lead a team to launch the first adult sex toy vibrator into space. The space craft will be equipped with a still and video camera that will send images of its best selling vibrator back to Earth. Through rigorous experimentation, the group has developed a way to send the vibrator into space. The toy will have to withstand temperatures of -75 degrees Fahrenheit and conditions 10 times above normal cosmic radiation. The vibrator will be fully exposed to the elements, reach an altitude of 100,000 feet (about 20 miles) above the Earth’s atmosphere, which is three times the cruising altitude of a typical jet plane. The team hopes to retrieve the vibrator in fully functioning order. SexToy Dave, CEO of parent company CNV.com Inc., says of his inspiration behind the project, "I have always been into firsts and that is how I made my money. I was one of the first on the web selling sex toys, first to have an adult affiliate program, the first to make three appearances on Bravo’s hit show Millionaire Matchmaker and now the first online adult business with a space program." The sex toy will be carried into space by a partially solar-powered, partially helium-filled balloon 8 feet wide, armed with a 1080p HD video camera, a 10MP still camera, two consumer cell phones running tracking software, and an experimental GPS unit. The balloon and vibrating bullet will travel through Jet stream winds of up to 100 miles per hour for one to three hours and achieve a total distance of up to 100 miles. Sextoy.com will publish the photos on its new blog, “Chew On This” at SexToy.com/blog. For more information email us at pr@cnv.com or call us at (310) 358-0932.
