La catalyse est le processus d'ajout d'un catalyseur pour faciliter une réaction, produisant ainsi un matériau avec de nouvelles utilisations potentielles. En un sens, c'est ce que présente l'exposition Des mondes sans nombre : la création infinie de Dieu does. Contributors have combined scientific and scriptural elements to create a new, uplifting experience for people of all faiths, backgrounds and beliefs. They expand the work of the scientific community to those seeking both scientific and religious answers to the design and purpose of the heavens, as well as inspiring youth toward scientific and spiritual discovery.

Building on the significant and valued contributions of a worldwide scientific community, discoveries made through the James Webb and Hubble Space Telescopes are now rewriting long-held assumptions about our universe and opening doors to new understanding. By adding religious truth and testimony we walk through those doors to even greater comprehension and appreciation of our purpose in life and the infinite and eternal design of an almighty God. It is spiritual learning that gives our secular learning purpose. 

Combiné avec le cadre respectueux du Washington DC Temple Visitors' Center, les individus et les familles disposent d'un lieu unique pour contempler l'immensité du cosmos et le but de sa création. C'est une atmosphère de réflexion personnelle, d'introspection et d'inspiration alors que nous nous émerveillons devant la majesté des cieux et, pour beaucoup, un Dieu et Créateur aimant.

In Proverbs 3:19 we learn: “The Lord by wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he established the heavens.” That suggests an important learning process—gaining knowledge through education that we might attain wisdom. By then applying correct principles our understanding evolves to help us most effectively contribute individual gifts and talents for the benefit of others. Through the Worlds Without Number: God’s Infinite Creation exhibit each of us can be inspired to expand our understanding of the heavens and more deeply appreciate a Savior and Exemplar who wants us to know that "Vous comptez pour lui."

The exhibit runs through October 31, 2024 at the Washington, DC Temple Visitors’ Center in Kensington, MD. All are welcome.
