Star of Bethlehem: a star, comet ... or miracle?

msnbc.com: Technology & Science

If the biblical account is correct in reporting that a "Star of Wonder" appeared around the time of Jesus' birth, what might it have been? A supernova? A comet? A planetary conjunction?The basis of the biblical "Star of Wonder" has long been a subject of astronomical wondering as well. Skywatching columnist Joe Rao reviews the tradtional and not-so-traditional explanations.

  1. COMET ISON may be the return of the STAR OF BETHLEHEM

    the orbit of COMET ISON brings it back every 333 years,
    so it can be established that the comet was here in 15 a.d.
    considering that an exact year has never been established
    for the birth of christ,
    is it more than coincidence that
    there was a census in 14 a.d. called by Caesar Augustus?

    you heard it here first !
