Space Exploration and Faith
Fifty years after the Apollo 11 mission, Roy Jenkins explores some of the fascinating connections between space exploration and religious faith.
Fifty years after Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin first walked on the moon, Roy Jenkins explores some of the fascinating links between space exploration and religious faith. This includes the Welsh bishop who first conceived of a manned mission to the moon; the story of the first ever communion service to be conducted on the surface of the moon; and the deep and continuing relationship between NASA and Webster Presbyterian Church in Houston. New discoveries about the cosmos are having a profound effect on our understanding of our place within it.
