MICHAEL R. MOLNAR

When astronomer Molnar acquired an ancient coin that showed a ram looking back at a star, he became interested in the ancient astrologers and began a journey that he thinks has led him to the famous Christmas star. Having established that the magi expected the birth of a new king under certain celestial conditions, he found that indeed the moon passed in front of Jupiter when that planet was in the east and in the sign of Aries on April 17th, 6 BC.
