    1. This article is posted on an online forum dedicated to faith and the exploration of outer space. It states that Russian cosmonauts in the International Space Station (ISS), in contrast to their Soviet predecessors, who were members of the Communist Party and convinced atheists, are Orthodox Christians and wear crosses. They also have four icons, the Gospel and the Divine Cross of the Lord (handed over by the Patriarch Alexy II).
