Star of Bethlehem



 Of course in 2020 the “Christmas star” would be visible for the first time in hundreds of years!!! What astronomers believe may have been the Christmas star on the night of Jesus birth was actually an alignment of Jupiter and Saturn resulting in a bright light in the sky. 

Mitch and I observed it getting closer and closer a few night in a row on our walks, but on the evening of the 21st it was very visible in the Tucson sky. The girls were excited to watch from Gigi and Papa’s driveway. It was very touching and quite a sight to see. So glad we were in Tucson with clear skies for this wonderful opportunity.
