Chapter 738: NASA Press Conference

9 a.m., Washington time.

In a green room at the NASA press conference.

NASA Director Carson stood in front of the mirror. He adjusted his tie and suddenly spoke.

"Gerstenmaier, do you believe in God?"

Gerstenmaier was sitting in a chair nearby. He hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"I… Sorry, I don't believe in God."

"So you're a materialist?"

"I guess so." Gerstenmaier shrugged and said, "I mean, I deal with rockets and satellites all day. I doubt there are any Christians in NASA."

"It seems like we are different people then." Carson smiled and slowly said, "I'm an idealist."

"… So you're a monotheist?"

"No, I believe in a different kind of idealism. It's more of a spiritual awakening kind of belief. How to make America great again? It's not about how to make it great again; it's about making people believe in America again."

Carson looked at Gerstenmaier and spoke.
