A devout Christian, Glover praised God from the heavens as he and his compatriots completed their lunar mission — and his faith resonated in shockwaves back on earth. While many are accustomed to watching celebrities or sports figures answer victory — and sometimes defeat — with prayer and a call to glorify God in all things, those words are more striking when they come from scientists because so often culture teaches us that science and faith must be at odds with each other. But Glover says otherwise, loudly and boldly — and when he’s given a microphone, even hundreds of thousands of miles from earth, he says it again. The naval test pilot holds three master’s degrees in flight and engineering fields, and he explained in a 2023 interview that his faith feeds his academic and career pursuits. “My career is fed by my faith. Anytime I do something that’s pretty risky, I pray. Before I fly, every time I fly. Definitely when you go sit on top of a rocket ship,” he said. “In the military, there’s a saying that there are no atheists in foxholes. There aren’t any on top of rockets, either.” Throughout Artemis II’s mission, Glover took every opportunity to share his faith — particularly in the context of God’s creation, to which he’d just been given a front-row seat. On Easter Sunday, he gave an impromptu speech from aboard the Orion capsule.
