“Now people the world over can know that they will see a wondrous guest star shining as the brightest in the sky for a month or so, being pointed at by the Arrow just below Cygnus, the Swan,” said Schaefer.
Clearly an astrologer who knows his stuff.

Bit irritated by the report saying it *will* happen in 2083, which makes it read like pseudo-science crap. Further down it becomes clearer that 2083 is just the middle of a ~30 year-wide confidence window.
