The Artemis of Shabbat

When the Artemis II astronauts were about to enter their 40-minute radio silence as they orbited over the dark side of the moon, Astronaut Victor Glover whimsically shared, “We will see you on the other side.” Suggesting that they would spend the time praying (it’s not clear if he was speaking in the “Royal We” or just for himself), the anticipated tension and nervousness expressed back on earth, didn’t seem to be reflected by the astronauts themselves, on the front or the back end.
