Who were the 3 saints in Cologne Cathedral and what did they observe in the sky back then? Old pictures show Balthasar, Caspar and Melchior as kings. The star they followed often resembles a comet. Today, the search for the identity of the 3 travelers and their "star" takes us on an odyssey 2000 years back in time and far out to fascinating events in space . . .
Speaker: Rudolf Tonn / Star guide: Klaus Sopora
