This Christmas planetarium program explores the age-old mystery of the Star of Bethlehem. Travel back in time to the Middle East and delve into ancient texts, including Biblical scripture, to search for clues to add to our modern scientific knowledge of the nature of the heavens above and see if there might be some natural explanation for the Star's appearance. Can science provide the answers, or is its explanation only to be found in realm of the miraculous?
A live sky tour follows the program, featuring constellations, planets, the moon and other items of interest currently visible in the sky, with tips for finding your way around in the heavens on the next clear night, and stories about the stars.
