Jews in Space

From Science Fiction to Science Fact, the Jewish Museum of Maryland Explores the Wonders of Space.

As the reality of life on Earth, continues to get more complicated, the Jewish Museum of Maryland is welcoming visitors to explore the wonder of space. From ancient astronomers to today’s space scientists and astronauts, Jewish people have been interested in “looking up.” Outer space has also inspired Jewish artists, writers, comedians, and thinkers, both religious and secular, to boldly imagine realms beyond our Earth.

Jews In Space: Members of the Tribe in Orbit was a year and a half in the making and debuted at the Center for Jewish History in New York in partnership with the YIVO Institute for Jewish Research. We are moonstruck to share this unusual and entertaining exhibit here at the Jewish Museum of Maryland.
