The king will do as he pleases.
He will exalt and magnify himself above every god
and will say unheard-of things against the God of gods.
He will be successful until the time of wrath is completed,
for what has been determined must take place.
He will show no regard for the gods of his fathers
or for the one desired by women, nor will he regard
any god, but will exalt himself above them all.
Instead of them, he will honor a god of fortresses;
a god unknown to his fathers he will honor with gold and silver,
with precious stones and costly gifts. From Daniel 11:36ff
A rose by any other name may smell as sweet. But would a mission to the moon named "Pegasus" have the same appeal as Apollo? Thanks to Dr. Abe Silverstein, former director of NASA's Glenn Research Center, we'll never know. Silverstein named Mercury and Apollo after mythical Greek gods while he was serving as NASA's Director of Space Flight Programs in the late 1950s.

The “Evil King” is the king many people refer to as the end-time Antichrist, displayed as Antiochos IV Epiphanes in this part of Daniel, only he will will come back in the end time and erect the “Abomination of Desolation” Christ talks about, and will honour the “God of Fortresses”, which can be no other than Zeus, the very same god in whose honour Epiphanes defiled the Jerusalem Temple in 167 BC, when he sacrificed a pig at the altar in the Temple’s courtyard.
An end-time world power, whose honouring the Greek pantheon? Let me see…. USA with NASA and it’s Greek gods, packed in tubes with liquid oxygen and shot to the Moon and elsewhere?

Are you saying they are planning to kill God using space rockets? Time for a reality check. Nah, they are probably seeing how we soon have used up this Earth and that we need to colonise the Moon and Mars.
