He is best known for his high-profile, private jaunts into space, most recently traveling on a rocket built by SpaceX, owned by Trump\u2019s billionaire ally Elon Musk, to conduct the first private spacewalk ever in September. His inaugural space voyage, in 2001, was the first to proceed without a professional astronaut on board.<\/p>\n<section class=\"fake-br-for-article-body\"\/>\n<p>Trump announced on Wednesday that he would nominate Isaacman to helm <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jpost.com\/tags\/nasa\">NASA.<\/a><\/p>\n<section class=\"fake-br-for-article-body\"\/>\n<section class=\"hide-for-premium\">  <\/section>\n<section class=\"fake-br-for-article-body\"\/>\n<p>\u201cWith the support of President Trump, I can promise you this: We will never again lose our ability to journey to the stars and never settle for second place,\u201d tweeted Isaacman, whose travels have prompted reflections on how Jewish law would address spaceflight, after Trump\u2019s announcement Wednesday. \u201cAmericans will walk on the Moon and Mars and in doing so, we will make life better here on Earth.\u201d<\/p>\n<section class=\"fake-br-for-article-body\"\/>\n<figure class=\"article-image-in-body\"><figcaption class=\"article-image-caption article-image-credit\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:auto;\"> A view of Jupiter&#8217;s moon Europa created from images taken by NASA&#8217;s Galileo spacecraft in the late 1990&#8217;s, according to NASA, obtained by Reuters May 14, 2018.

This year, he and his father Don, who is on Shift4\u2019s board, were among dozens of people on a gala committee for Chabad of Hunterdon County, the Hasidic movement\u2019s outpost in their area of New Jersey. In 2010, Isaacman donated the opportunity to be \u201cFighter Pilot for a Day\u201d on one of his planes to a Chabad auction.<\/p>\n<section class=\"fake-br-for-article-body\"\/>\n<p>Isaacman would not be the first Jewish NASA director. President George H.W. Bush selected Daniel S. Goldin, an engineer who had been active in the movement to free Soviet Jewry, to helm the organization in 1992.&#13;<\/p>\n<section>&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<\/section>\n<p>&#13;\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\n  !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n  {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n  n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n  if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n  n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n  t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n  s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, document,'script',\n  'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n  fbq('init', '1730128020581377');\n  fbq('track', 'PageView');\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jpost.com\/american-politics\/article-832088\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#13; (JTA) \u2014 To advance his efforts to return Americans to the moon, President-elect Donald Trump is tapping a Jewish entrepreneur who has traveled privately to space himself.
