Mars Landing

Don’t let it be said that we here at Israelity are not up for a good joke now and then…

Two astronauts land on Mars. Their mission: to check whether there is oxygen on the planet.

“Give me the box of matches” says one. “Either it burns and there is oxygen or nothing happens.

“He takes the box and is ready to strike a match when out of the blue a Martian appears waving all his arms…”No, no, don’t!

“The two guys look at each other worried. Could there be unknown explosive gases on Mars? But he takes another match….

And now a crowd of hysterical Martians is coming all waving their arms: “No no, don’t do that!”

“It looks serious. What are they afraid of? But – we’re here for Science, to know if man can breathe on Mars”. He strikes a match which flames up, burns down and….. nothing happens.

“Why did you want to prevent us from striking a match?” the lead astronaut asks.

“Its Shabbos!!!!!!!!!”

Thanks, Aunt Babe.
