"Where are we going?" [Bishop Aringarosa] had
demanded of his driver.

"Alban Hills," the man replied. "Your meeting
is at Castel Gandolfo."

The Pope's summer residence? Aringarosa had
never been, nor had he ever desired to see it.

In addition to being the Pope's summer vacation
home, the sixteenth-century citadel housed the
Specula Vaticana--the Vatican Observatory--one
of the most advanced astronomical observatories
in Europe.

Aringarosa had never been comfortable with the
Vatican's historical need to dabble in science.
What was the rationale for fusing science and
faith?

Unbiased science could not possibly be
performed by a man who possessed faith
in God. Nor did faith have any need for
physical confirmation of its beliefs.
