From Wired News:
Long Distance Relationship
A Russian cosmonaut circling 240 miles above the earth on the International Space Station married his fiancé in Texas on Sunday in the first space wedding. Bride Ekaterina Dmitriev blew her new husband Yuri Malenchenko a kiss as the two exchanged vows on a satellite hookup before 200 people. A beaming Dmitriev, dressed in a traditional white wedding dress, told reporters she was very happy. "It's a celestial, soulful connection that we have," said the bride, adding that their long-distance communication brought them close. A wedding organizer said the ceremony was highly traditional except for the absence of the groom. Well, hey, let's not stand on convention. Only thing is, will they be able to talk in person?
