In this episode we speak with Rabbi Adam Bellows about the religious implications of living off earth long term.

Rabbi Bellows is the spiritual leader of Temple Israel in West Lafayette, Indiana. He was ordained at the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion in Cincinnati, Ohio, where he wrote his thesis entitled "Eyes on the Horizon: Theological and Halakhic Challenges for the First Jewish Settlers on the Moon, Mars, and Beyond." 

We discuss whether the bible permits travel into space, how to maintain the Jewish calendar when one is not on earth, and how religion might evolve once we become multiplanetary.
