Ilan Ramon Scholarship Project Sends Historic & Iconoclastic Israeli Space Images to the Moon

JERUSALEM, ISRAEL, May 14, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — The Ilan Ramon Scholarship Project announced that it has sent historic and iconoclastic Israeli space images and photos to the Moon.

According to Daniel Rockberger, co-founder of the Ilan Ramon Scholarship Project, “At this moment in time when there is so much unpleasant news, this is a remarkable story of hope and optimism. This is a story of building the future and fueling inspiration. This week in Israel is Yom Hazikaron, the national day of remembrance for fallen soldiers and victims of terrorism. It is a year unlike any other in Israel’s history, as the nation grieves for those lost and prays for the safe return of those being held hostage.”

As Israeli President Isaac Herzog stated previously that, “Mankind must soar to new heights… Let us walk in the footsteps, or rather soar in the flight paths, of Ilan Ramon and his fellow astronauts, and move upward and onward, harnessing the power of space, for the promise of Earth. Together, we can take space exploration—and our capacity for human collaboration—to new heights and save our planet from new and terrifying depths.”

The Institute of Space Commerce (ISC) has arranged for an image of Ilan Ramon to be sent to the lunar surface as part of a 2024 mission led by Lonestar Data Holdings. According to ISC co-founder Michael Potter, “Sending an image of Ilan Ramon to the moon will be a powerful way to inspire young people to pursue their passions in science and technology.”
