Notre Dame Stories

What was the Christmas Star? 

To many people, it’s a story so familiar that they may not even realize there’s more to be discovered. The Bible describes an event that led so-called wise men to Jesus. Scripture calls it a star, but what was it really? That’s the question Grant Mathews, director of the Center for Astrophysics, set out to answer.
