December 16: Christmas... In... SPAAAAACE

So the ghosts of Christmas past, present... and future.

16: Christmas... In... SPAAAAACE
“And Mrs. Claus has positively identified the kidnappers as Martians.”

Given how much Christmas traditions have changed over the past centuries, and particularly the last century (with humanity’s first actual Christmas in space in 1968 and a number celebrated since on the ISS) what will the holiday be like in another century?

Robot Santa?

Star Trek: Generations had a very traditional Dickensian Christmas in Picard’s mindscape, apt as Sir Patrick Stewart has also performed A Christmas Carol as a one-man show and a film.

Judge Dredd Christmas stories have included Weather Control putting on snow, very briefly, and stores sending Santas out on flying sleighs with robot reindeer.

Hardware has a last-minute Christmas present in a post-apocalypse city prove to be a very bad idea.
