While the pseudo Christains were crapping all over this newsgroup during the
Christmas season, I noticed this article in our local newspaper. Those interested in astronomy might find it worthwhile. http://www.cbc.ca/canada/nova-scotia...r-mystery.html |

Congratulations Donald. There is only one misspelling / grammatical error in your post. Did you take my suggestion and enroll in a remedial course? |

Now THAT is interesting! But i would think they would be able to come up with who (company/craftsman) were who built the church, seeing that especially then, there were usually a lot of records kept, that is unless they burned up in the flames. Or, at least I would think so. But then again, and without re-reading the article, I'm thinking that the ceiling is more of a modern day interpretation, or a re-created facsimile, isn't it? |

The current version is....copied from photos of the original. |

The current version is....copied from photos of the original. OK, I re-read the article,a nd here's what threw me off: "But the church didn't have a complete set of photographs of the original star pattern, so Coolen, hoping the pattern reflected the actual alignment of heavenly bodies in the night sky, sought the help of astronomer David Turner of Saint Mary's University in Halifax." The part about the incomplete photos. Anyhow, I can see how it could be re-crreated with reasonable accuracy, now. BTW, I'm sorry that arsonists burned the place. That's really low! |
