It's very interesting how that astronaut worked out a way to prostrate himself in zero-G; I'm curious how he goes about the required ablutions, due to the limited amount of water available, but I'm sure there's some way to do it. " It is not easy to move gracefully in space; you have to practice, because the forces acting on your body feel so different." - I hope someday to find that out in person!
I remember someone I used to know when he was a new Witch. He was in the "merchant marine" - he was a working sailor. And he was bothered that the ship might change direction after he had cast a Circle in his quarters, making the directions all wrong. It took me a while to convince him that his intent was more important than which way the ship was going, and I advised him to invoke Deities who understood the ocean and the constraints of a seafaring life, such as Poseidon, Neptune, Sedna, Yemaya, Ran, Lir, and Stella Maris.
