The Jewish phrase mazel tov, loosely translated to “congratulations,” literally means “good constellations.” Come to this preview of a new exhibit scheduled to open at the Jewish Museum of Maryland in Baltimore this September. Though the exhibition takes its title from a faux movie trailer in a Mel Brooks film, JMM Executive Director Marvin Pinkert uses it as a jumping off point for a serious (but not too serious) look at the impact people of Jewish heritage have had on astronomy, space exploration, and science fiction.
Duration: 50 minutes

Presented by Marvin Pinkert, Director of the Jewish Museum of Maryland
