Please join us for an uplifting evening dinner and panel with two extraordinary adventurers!

One brought Jewish items on several space shuttle missions and read from a small Torah in orbit. The other climbed the Seven Summits with her mom and celebrated Passover with a seder at Mount Everest Base Camp. Meet astronaut Dr. Jeff Hoffman and mountaineer Dr. Nikki Bart for an exciting, out-of-this-world panel discussion and Q&A (and dinner!).

The evening also includes a book signing by Rachelle Burk, author of “Space Torah: Astronaut Jeffrey Hoffman’s Cosmic Mitzvah,” “Passover on Everest” and “She’s a Mensch! Jewish Women Who Rocked the World.”

This event is in collaboration with MIT Chabad, Harvard Chabad and the Space Torah Project.
