Anyone know why there seem to have been some sort of politician reading from seemingly the bible (or similar religious textbook) and how that's relevant to a space mission? Seems wildly out of place from the usually grounded NASA and ESA.

Edit: The person in question seems to have been Bill Nelson, former United States senator but now NASA administrator, the highest ranked official in NASA. Which makes this whole thing even more weird, should that person strictly be a person of science, not religion?

Edit2: Seems stream is over now, here is the exact timestamp for the speech/reading: https://youtu.be/7nT7JGZMbtM?t=7222
