Mystery of the Christmas Star
This video presentation by Evans and Sutherland discusses the issue of what the Christmas star might have been. Starting with determining when the events described happened, and who the Wise Men might have been, the video then discusses the astronomical objects that might have motivated them to travel a dangerous path through the desert. The video is intended for all audiences.
