Description

The term "star-crossed" is usually applied to lovers, whose relationship is doomed from the start. In this case it means that a scientist has, more or less in vain, tried to become proficient in the complex field of astrophysiologymnometrics and was bound to fail miserably.

No wonder he's so cross.

While he glances longingly at a chart you get the jump on him.
