The heavens are full of wonder, and the astronomers who work for the Vatican Observatory probably know that better than most people on earth. In this episode of Catholic Review Radio, Editor Christopher Gunty talks with Jesuit Father Paul Gabor, vice director of the Vatican Observatory in Tucson, Ariz., about the intersection between faith and science. As a scientist, he is grateful for the gift of understanding the universe, and receiving that as a gift from God. The Vatican Observatory has been around for centuries, studying the cosmos.
