Yes, really. Israel is sending a lunar lander to the moon and blast-off is this month. It will take two or three months before the landing. Israel will be the fourth nation to the moon after the US, Russia, and China. But the big news, is that it’s a private company, not the Israeli government doing it.
SPACE IL – FIRST ISRAELI SPACECRAFT ON THE MOON SpaceIL’s spacecraft will launch as a secondary payload on a SPACEX Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral, Florida and land on the Moon about two months later.
First Private Lunar Spacecraft Shoots for the Moon – The moon’s next visitor is different. SpaceIL’s Beresheet — Hebrew for “In the Beginning” — will become the first privately funded mission to launch from Earth and land on the moon, and the first spacecraft to propel itself over the lunar surface after landing by “hopping” on its rocket engine to a second landing spot.
Please click on the above links to enjoy more details. This is just another example of Yehovah God’s favor on Israel. I think it’s great that the name of the lander is: Beresheet — Hebrew for “In the Beginning” Notice the bold parts of this quote from Genesis.
”I will make you a great nation;I will bless you and make your name great; and you shall be a blessing.I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you; and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” Genesis 12:2-3
Pray for the success of this mission and for rain in Israel and for the peace of Jerusalem!

(Why do I use God’s literal covenant Name: Yehovah? Here is a link to the best simple explanation I know, from my friend, Keith Johnson. Also, here is a link to my book which explains it in detail, The Hebrew God Who Has No Name.)
Awesome!
