This September Jessica Meir is set to travel to space. Before her, only three other Jewish women went to outerspace. Marsha Sue, spent more than 1,300 hourse in Space, Ellen S. Baker explored Jupiter through the Galileo Probe and Judy Resnik was the first American Jewish astronut to go to space. These women are apart of the 15 Jewish astronuts to have traveled to space. Jessica Meir is included in that number, and we wish her luck on her first trip to outerspace.
