The Soviets tried to assassinate Sir Bernard Lovell, the man behind the Jodrell Bank radio telescope and unsung hero of the Cold War, using the world's largest death ray.
Well, according to the Times article, he is one of the world's most eminent astrologers.

Whatever happens to itch in one's particular world, I suppose. Clueless journalist can't tell the difference between an astronomer and an astrologer. I saw the headline and read "Grilled St. Bernard". Maybe the Times genius hadn't had his coffee yet either.
I knew the Rooskies were steamed he leaked the Venus probe photos to the press before they were ready, but I didn't think they'd kill him for it.
I'd expect The Sun to confuse astronomer/astrologer, but not The Times.
The article has been amended.
It now reads 'astronomer'.
No apology.
...but the Times is worst than the Sun... look how they constantly try to humiliate the Italian Prime Minister, while the Italian press couldn't care less about the UK scandals and the dumb Gordon Brown. Even if there is so much to say... from the tricky expense notes of UK politicians, to the worldwide renowned pervert Nazi Max Mosley, not getting his jollies anymore from being whipped on his pale ass and therefore trying to push our Ferrari out the F1... not to say nothing about the major UK companies becoming owned by the Italians... but no, the Times cares about the fact that Mr. Berlusconi likes the pretty young women... may be if he were a bottom gay instead they would appreciate him more, since for sure he'd be closer to the standards of their Oxford education...
