A speculation about the star of Bethlehem??

The bible says that there was a bright star shining in the east when Jesus was born...perhaps they were actually witnessing haley's comet or another comet??? i know that in 1066, right before william the conqueror's invasion of england, they saw a "bright star" that they counted as an omen, but actually was Haley's comet. Any opinions on this?

Reply:There has been a lot of research done on the Star of Bethlehem, but no one has successfully identified it. There is an article in the December 2007 issure of Sky %26amp; Telescope which says that biblical scholars have decided that the story is apocyphal, added into the gospel a century after Christ's birth, and quite inconsistent with known historical facts.
Reply:Well, they don't really know for sure if there was a comet, since nowhere in scripture or in history was written about a sort of comet or fast moving object in the sky around that time (from what I have heard).





But read this, and maybe it can help you out a little bit.
Reply:If the star appearance is so sudden, and the brightness goes up in short time, than it is probably a supernova happening years before, but due to the limit in the speed of light, the light reached Betlehem at the time.





Otherwise it might be a meteor.
Reply:For me,maybe thats not halleys comet.Maybe its Venus,because its the brightest object in the sky.If its a star,it is maybe the star Sirius and Sirius is the brightest star..
