Is this your first novel?
LOL, not a novel. Nor is it my first book. The three wise men were most likely fictional representations of the 3 stars in the belt of Orion. I didn't combine astronomy with the Bible. I am just the messenger. I attempt in my book to be gentle with religious readers and not insulting (different from my first book), while at the same time look at the archeological record and attempt to explain why the Bible story is different from it, without insulting the intellect of its authors.
The only solar sytem items I "mooch off" are the sun, moon, and Venus.
