Have you ever wondered whether the Magi really saw a Star leading them to Jesus?
A few years ago, the Catholic News Service interviewed Brother Guy Consomagno, S.J., about how astronomers explain the science behind the Christmas phenomenon. This video posted, also posted on our Faith & Science website, will help you to better understand the scientific possibilities and the importance of this religious symbol from the Director of the Vatican Observatory.
Have a Blessed Christmas!
