Koscher im All
NASA’s Discovery space shuttle is set to undertake a six-month-long research mission on the international space station in May. Aside from the usual team of astronauts, however, this “kosher” shuttle will also be carrying some very precious cargo on board in the form of two unique mezuzahs. Jewish-American astronaut Gregory Chamitoff, who will be part of the Discovery crew, will place the mezuzahs, designed by Israeli jeweler Laura Cowan, on the door post near his shuttle bunk. The astronaut noted that these mezuzahs will serve as a constant reminder of home, and give him a sense of Jewish identity. http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/1,7340,L-3527517,00.html
