Israeli firms to launch first private lunar lander with flag, Bible

h/t Instapundit
The world's first privately funded lunar lander is ready for its mission to the moon in early 2019.

The Israeli company SpaceIL and Israel Aerospace Industries loaded the payload -- the prayer of "Tefilat Haderech," the Bible, the Israeli flag, the national anthem and pictures drawn by children -- in a special ceremony Monday. Now, the spacecraft, dubbed Beresheet (genesis in Hebrew) will travel to Cape Canaveral, Fla., where it will be launched aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket in mid-February.

Looms a star newly purchased with alms,
Made of bundled qassams,
And this time it's Islam's!"
A kaboom on the moon. "Also bombs."
