For NASA being in a supposedly Christian country, why the continued use of pagans (Ares)? At least Orion seems to be something secular, or is it?
Orion's Belt is called "The Three Kings" (or "The Magi") in some places and, in South America, it is known as "Las Tres Marias" or "As Três Marias" (The Three Marys), in honor of Mary of Nazareth, Mary Magdalene, and Mary of Bethany, three major New Testament figures.
