It was on this date in 1860 that this man, LeVerrier, announced his discovery of a new planet in our solar system to the Académie des Sciences in Paris.  The name of this mystical planet was Vulcan, and it has since been found to be nonexistent.

Deuteronomy 4:19 ESV

And beware lest you raise your eyes to heaven, and when you see the sun and the moon and the stars, all the host of heaven, you be drawn away and bow down to them and serve them, things that the Lord your God has allotted to all the peoples under the whole heaven.
