Space Ryasa for MP priest

[Alexander Kuzmin]

These two priests do not look happy and encouraged!

If one could caption the thoughts of those two MP priests, they are probably thinking, "I would not want to be caught dead in that outfit as it looks too Papist."

And the one holding his Cross could be thinking, "Yes, and the only thing right is the hat. At least they did not put a Roman Catholic Biretta on that space helmet."

That expression of the priest clutching his cross IS priceless.

Now are there going to be MP priests accompanying space missions soon ?
What is the point : for them to bless any new discoveries, or to
be there in case of any disaster, to administer Confession and Holy Communion to the
astronauts ?
Or, the mission is so long that their spiritual guidance will be needed to shore up
the astronauts' flagging spirits / loneliness out in space without other human contact ?

I don't believe that the monastic suit is really present when this picture was taken. Look at the angle of the legs and bent knees and placement of feet. Even the position of the arms. Look at the sizes of the left and right arm. It's EXACTLY the same as the space suit model. I think this picture is doctored.

Where did this picture originate? Is this a joke picture? People wake up. Don't believe everything they put out there.

I took this picture from the facebook of ROAC priest from St.Petersburg Fr Alexey Levedev.
I looked for it and found it in some news, for example here:

I do not know if the picture is true (the heads are at different levels there, so they look different), but priests of MP serve under the water, and in the middle of the ocean in a small boat, and on the top of the highest mountains, and under the earth, and on the North Pole and everywhere, and this is on TV news. I will not be surprised if they send a priest to space.
But all this activity does not help to bring people to Christianity.

Here is a church that they throw down from from plane with a parachute (the priests jump from the same plane nearby).

And look at this diving at the link below. What is the spiritual sense of it? Was it an extra-blessing? Did it convert anybody? I doubt it.
