Summary:
Brother Guy Consolmagno and Father Paul Mueller are scientists at Specola Vaticana, the
Vatican
Observatory
in
Vatican
City

Was the Star of Bethlehem just a pious religious story or an actual description of astronomical events? What really went down between Galileo and the Catholic Church? Will the Universe come to an end? And could you baptize an extraterrestrial? Guy Consolmagno is the author of Brother astronomer: adventures of a
Vatican
