Super Pigs

The effects of Space on Pig Sperm is considered a valid use of public money according to the Chinese:

China is planning to study the effects of space on sperm, by sending the semen from pedigree pigs into orbit.
Some 40 grams of pig sperm will be taken on board the Shenzhou VI spacecraft for its October launch.

Some of the sperm will be kept outside the spacecraft's biological capsule and some inside, according to China's Xinhua news agency.
...
Agricultural experts hope to use the sperm to fertilise pig eggs back on Earth - to see what effect a period of microgravity will have had on the sperm's activity.

Isn't this the part where we turn to the next page and find out that the pig sperm gets horribly mutated in blackness of space... The sperm gets implanted into some eggs, and the piglets turn out to have super powers? Is this the birth of the Super Pigs?
