Is the phrase Brighter Than A Thousand Suns from the Mayan
prophecies? (As I understood it to be)
If you search in books on Amazon you get:
Brighter Than a Thousand Suns: A Personal History of the
Atomic Scientists, by Robert Jung

Was this book title chosen because of the prophecy that an
explosion Brighter than... etc would destroy the world?  Was it
Mayan?
