Is there a particularly “Jesuit” form of science? From Acosta’s work in the New World to modern research at the Vatican Observatory, we’ll look at the work of a number of Jesuit scientists through history and see how what they did, and why they did it, was colored and influenced by Ignatian Spirituality as seen in the Spiritual Exercises.

Presented by Br. Guy Consolmagno SJ

Dr. Consolmagno is the Director of the Vatican Observatory and President of the Vatican Observatory Foundation. He is the author six books including:
– Turn Left at Orion (with Dan Davis),
– Would You Baptize an Extraterrestial? (with Paul Mueller).

Date: October 14 – 7:30pm EST (90 mins + questions)

There is no cost for this webinar. It will be recorded and shared with registrants.
