I’m thinking maga hates science because it asks to many questions about their belief system.

Hard to know for sure, but could also be "ignore scientists that don't agree with scripture". I've seen it unfortunately often.

Scripture thought that the moon was just a big nightlight.

yes ignore the tiny # of scientists who were there and did this. Only 424 astronomers out of about 10,000 participated in the 2006 vote; less than 5%. Alan Stern (leading scientist on the New Horizons mission to Pluto) said it was a farce & that the astronomy community was expected to overturn it.

Seems like Mr. Stern was wrong.
