- Br. Guy Consolmagno has an incredible job. He is the Pope's astronomer at the Vatican Observatory. Most people do not even know that the Vatican has an official astronomical observatory with telescopes in Italy and the USA. The Vatican and astronomy have a long history dating all the way back to 1582 and the Gregorian reform of the calendar. The observatory also has one of the major collections of meteorites in the world, with over 1100 pieces from the depths of space.
EWTN's Colm Flynn visits the Vatican Observatory in Castel Gandolfo in Italy to meet Br. Guy Consolmagno and find out more about this hidden part of the Vatican.
"If you've ever lost the passion to do what you're doing, then you've lost the passion to do it." Beautiful and can be applied to anything. I've always wondered why this part of the Church has been obscured, it would be nice to acknowledge more the commonalities between science and religion than the divisions. I want to believe that the Big Bang was the time when God said "Let there be light!"
Well, actually, he said "If you ever lose the passion to do what you're doing, then you've lost the reason to do it".
I hope Brother Guy Consolmagno considers contacting Anton Petrov.
I suspect there have been many Carrington Events in Earth's history. But there have 5 Carrington Events which resulted in Massive Extinction Events.
445 Million Years Ago
355 Million Years Ago
250 Million Years Ago
200 Million Years Ago
66 Million Years Ago
This.might explain why there have extinction periods combined with multiple mutations at various different times in the milliins of years in Earth's history. This might even explain Gould's observation's of Punctuated Equilibrium.

Bro. Consolmagno is a amazing man with an intellect that is both refreshing, humbling, and thought provoking. I hope to meet him someday and also hope he has a chance to a spread his enlightened yet ecumenical views.
I was unaware that the Vatican had an observatory until I heard it on one of the podcasts. They were one of the first. I love this stuff!! Thank you EWTN for bringing to us a another informative piece of our beautiful Catholic religion! God Bless the staff at EWTN! Amen
Sadly I fear most "Freethinkers" have either thought of "reclaiming" it for Science or Burning it down.
Yes they have the Lucifer telescope 😳👀Yep! No good!👎💩💩💩.Have no clue how people don't know stuff by now!sheeshhh!!
Great interview by Colm Flynn! I've had the pleasure of meeting Bro. Guy once before, and he's just as delightful in person as he is in this interview. Can't wait to be on an upcoming retreat with him!
This man is great! I've watched many videos of him.
I think science and religion shouldn't be in conflict, you can have both. They can coexist!
I see science as away of understanding God's creation.
When it comes to science and faith I stand for the following:
1. Dialogue
2. Embracing science
3. Reconciliation/interpretation
4. Promotion of science in religious circles
Sadly many Religious have been fooled by those promoting the Conflict of Religion and Science already and think you are pushing God away by promoting Human Science.
This entire conflict has become Self feeding now.

03:15 🌟 The Vatican observatory has a rich history dating back to 1582, with contributions to science and astronomy, including the mapping of stars and the collection of meteorites.
04:26 🪶 Pope Paul VI even spoke to Apollo astronauts on the moon from the observatory's dome, emphasizing the church's commitment to science and technology.
05:52 🔬 You can be both a person of faith and a scientist, asmany significant scientists throughout history were deeply religious.

"Science should be for the Glory of God. And what I mean is: It should be fun - because joy IS the Glory of God!" - a priest with a beautiful smile and eyes full of dreams and fantasy
What a clearly passionate person.
Very beautiful the universe . Very well done 👏✔
listening from the ukwales 2021❤️
Joy IS the Glory of God!
Very well done. Great job.
I love this guy, pardon the pun 😂
Justice watches over the path of the innocent,
but impiety leads the sinner to fall.
Fascinating
Beautiful is the only word that comes to mind…
Outstanding
HAPPY PI DAY....*M y dearest *Guido* from Sis.Dianne Carol Nordean*Alta,Canada* Cup Of Tea* I found the *PEARL*
Maybe the Church of Christ should have an observatory too. Of course, we would allow the public in - and stand at the door with an offering plate. And of course, it would compete with the budget to resurface the parking lot.
I like Guy. It didn't take a 1000 years to make the BB look naive - JWST has us questioning everything now.
Glory to the Father and the Mother
Cool
❤
I’m looking Guy. I still haven’t been persuaded to believe your globe models.
👍
Gimel For no one who puts his hope in you will be disappointed;
those who willfully break the faith will be disappointed.
Папский звездочёт похож на санту Клауса.
Wouldn't it be wonderful if Pope Francis allowed Priests to Hear Confessions via SKYPE or Zoom think of the People in Prison Hospitals the Housebound that could benefit from a ZOOM OR SKYPE Confession Please will you ask Pope Francis to have a Thought on this if you can have a Doctors Consultation or Job Interview on Zoom or Skype why not Confession
What's wrong with EWTN? You have nothing else to report except stars, etc....
Mother Angelica pray for EWTN
