During an emotional interview with NPR’s Terry Gross, Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield opened up about his views on space, faith and our place in the universe.
When asked if being in space has changed his perspective on spirituality, Hadfield, who has spent a total of six months in space and has orbited Earth thousands of times, said that his faith has “absolutely” been reinforced by his time in the cosmos.
“The world, when you look at it, it just can’t be random,” he said. “I mean, it’s so different than the vast emptiness that is everything else and even all the other planets we’ve seen, at least in our solar system, none of them even remotely resemble the precious life-giving nature of our own planet.”
