Why Is NASA Hiring Religious Leaders To Prepare For Encounter With Aliens?
In a rather bizarre move, NASA has recruited a British priest to prepare the religious for the discovery of alien life as space agencies claim to be getting closer to discovering evidence that life exists outside of planet earth reports The Times.
Reverend Dr. Andrew Davison, a priest and theology professor at the University of Cambridge, is among 24 theologians who are participating in a program sponsored by NASA at the space agency’s Center for Theological Inquiry (CTI) at Princeton University.
The theologians are attempting to assess how major religions would react to news of alien life being found.
The appointment comes as NASA’s $10 billion James Webb Space Telescope blasted into space on Christmas day.
The vessel will implement cutting-edge technology to examine every phase of cosmic history inside the solar system to the most distant observable galaxies in the early universe.
The device, which features infrared capabilities, will study a wide array of scientific questions to help mankind better understand the “origins of the universe and humans’ place in it.”
