It's been done.
LOL, I wouldn’t have known all that had it not been for Adam Sandler’s “Hanukkah Song”.
#55. You left out Walter Koenig/Chekov. As I told him, a few more Jews in space and we can have a minion. I don’t think I actually told him that but I might have. He was a nice person to talk to. Jimmy Doonan was very funny and George Takei, hilarious. Shatner, not much. Funny on stage, but no when he was signing autographs. Nimoy was a quiet person but very nice.
William Windom, “The Doomsday Machine”, wasn’t Jewish that I know of, but his name in the episode was “Commodore Dekker”.
My great-grandfather was a “dekker”, a roofer. Maybe it was a little Roddenberry/Shatner/Nimoy humor in scripting.
Lol
Made me chuckle....
Shatner was so non Jewish acting then.....who knew ....
Been a lot of Jews in space here and Russia
One died on Columbia and one on Challenger
It's been done.

Yeah, but InJewnuity's was the first birth in space, on Mars.
Jewish identity: it all depends on the mother.
Necessity is the mother of invention.
Perseverance is the mother of ingenuity.
But wait! Perseverance (aka Percy) is a boy.
Which reminds me...
...of Miss Resnik
(Pillow Talk, 1959)
A man said he was going to have a baby and you let him go?
He was obviously a psychopath.
- And if he wasn't?
- But Dr. Maxwell.
Miss Resnick, medical science still has many unknowns to explore.

Space: the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Its five-year mission: to explore strange new worlds. To seek out new life and new civilizations. To boldly go where no man has gone before!
Contrast Cain, as his was the first recorded birth on Earth.
Cain was not.. Abel
He had a "no-can-do" spirit. He would rather kill anyone who was able. It's the simple meaning.
Genesis 413 And Cain said unto the LORD, My punishment is greater than I can bear.
14 Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth; and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, that every one that findeth me shall slay me.
No ingenuity whatsoever! Not a Jew. Compare David on the run -- when faced with the king of Gath, he came up with the idea to act like a drooling madman.
The PINTELe Yid is the one with the INTEL inside.
And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the bason, and strike the lintel and the two side posts with the blood that is in the bason; and none of you shall go out at the door of his house until the morning...
:)
To boldly go where no man has gone before:
Remember the scene in Lawrence of Arabia?
"From the landward side, there are no guns at Aqaba."
Genesis 3:24 So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.
Okay but in the spirit of "venahafoch hu", like the verb right there in the verse:
On the West there are no Cherubims guarding the Garden of Eden.
Ingenious Christopher Columbus sailed West in order to go East (to Hodu no less), and he discovered a whole new world.
Surnamed after a dove, the Spirit of Elohim. Gen 1:2.
The God of Abraham -- The Funniest Jew on Earth
"I Yam that I Yam"
(always saving Olive Oyl)
The lyrics to "Jews in Space" --
"When goyim attack us, we'll give 'em a smack.."
What Popeye sang in his theme song:
I'm one tough Gazookus
That hates all Palookas
That ain't on the up and square
I biffs 'em and buffs 'em
And always out roughs 'em
And none of 'em gets nowhere

Zooming along, protecting the Hebrew race...

Bonus for anyone who remembers that David called himself a worm, the specific type that was used to make the red dye.
It's the name of this iconic NASA* font. Of wisdom.
*Going up... it's what "Can Do" People DO.
No one can curse a people who make lemonade out of lemons because the curses *are* the blessings.
Talk about low overhead.
David couldn't build the Temple because he was a man of war who shed much blood, which is the same description as Mars. The same for whom the third day was named (Tuesday, martes, martedi..)
But his son... he shall DO.
How would Popeye pronounce "American"? Am-Ares-kin?
Asking for a friend.
