In Their Own Words

When physics meets faith

“It is the universe’s boundless mysteries that continue to draw me to astrophysics. I further explored these mysteries by examining the fine-tuning theory during my doctoral research in philosophy of religion. This theory proposes that the universe’s physical constants are finely calibrated to support human existence, and that even slight changes could make life impossible.”
