NASA Spacewalker: God Had a Plan for Me!

Up, up and away!

Science Is Man’s Attempt to Understand God’s Creation Ross continues: A view of me during my last spacewalk. What a tremendous vantage point from which to view God’s beautiful creation we call Earth. “Then God looked over all he had made, and it was excellent in every way.” Genesis 1:31, The Living Bible. I read the creation story in Genesis while preparing to sleep in the International Space Station. I have no problem combining science and my faith. I understand and believe what science says about the creation of the universe. I also find it impossible to believe that everything I saw from space was created without God. Science explains many things. We understand more about the universe every day. But there are things that science will never explain. To me, that is evidence of God’s infinite wisdom and power. Those things beyond man's understanding are the things we hope to have revealed in our life after death.
