"A Christmas
Present"
This program for the young and
young at heart joins two
astronauts who are in orbit on
Christmas Eve and spot a strange
red light. Before they discover
what it is, they reminisce about
Christmas' of the past and
ponder what the Christmas Star
might have been. (Produced by

"Star of Wonder"
This program speculates on what
the Christmas Star might have
been. Astronomical possibilities
examined include comets,
meteors, novae, and planetary
conjunctions. Historical,
biblical, and astronomical
records are combined to try to
solve the age-old mystery of the
star.
