Space Wedding Successful

Posted by michael on from the ground-control-to-major-tom dept.

The Llama King writes "Love transcends all, including gravity, the atmosphere and orbital altitudes. According to this story at the Houston Chronicle, "Yuri Malenchenko didn't let the fact that he's living aboard the international space station stop him from marrying his bride, Ekaterina Dmitriev." The bride was at Johnson Space Center near Houston, while the groom circled 240 miles above her. The honeymoon will have to wait."

    It's a good thing we got this news of a Russian nerd marrying someone 230 miles away, while trapped in a small aluminium box. There's hope for the nerds trapped in their parents basement yet!
