Astronaut Kalpana Chawla was a fan of the band and took three CDs into
space: Deep Purple's "Machine Head" and "Down To Earth," and Rainbow's
"Purpendicular."

That would be Deep Purple's "Machine Head" and "Purpendicular" and
Rainbow's "Down to earth". :^)

Rock Hall, but keep the "Purpendicular" one as a personal memento,
since two members of Rainbow are in the current lineup of Deep Purple.

Well, they are but Rainbow didn't do "Purpendicular". There weren't
two former Rainbow members in DP at the time of the "Purpendicular"
recording.

Well, I caught all that about a second after I hit send. No point in fixing
it after the fact. Fans of the band(s) would catch the obvious errors.
Anyone else wouldn't care. And so it goes.....
