Thanksgiving from space

I bet we all enjoyed thankgiving this week, but did you know that this holiday extends from out of our world?

On thursday, thanksgiving was celebrated at the International Space Station, which last week celebrated its 10 years in orbit. The space crew has celebrated thanksgiving since 2000, but this was the first time the US space shuttle was docked to the station during the holiday.

The astronauts enjoyed their most traditional meal in orbit, with smoked turkey, yams, green beans, cornbread dressing, and even dessert.

It's cool that this holiday is celebrated outside of not only america but also the world. Just think, in the future we may have turkey on the Moon!
