Name a star for their birthday
Socks wear out. Vouchers get spent. A star named for their birthday is different: a real, catalogued star, dedicated to them in our register — once, permanently, never resold. Every birthday after this one, it's still up there with their name on it.
Their birthday constellation
The touch that makes a birthday star feel made for them: choose their zodiac constellation. We offer four of the zodiac — Taurus (April–May), Gemini (May–June), Leo (July–August) and Scorpius (October–November) — plus eight more of the sky's most famous: Orion, Ursa Major, Cygnus, Cassiopeia, Lyra, Pegasus, Andromeda and Aquila. Not sure? Choose "surprise me" and let the sky decide.

The Classic is delivered within minutes, any hour of any day — 11pm the night before is fine; the morning of the birthday breakfast is fine. Print any of the five documents at home and slip one in a card, or send the e-gift reveal by WhatsApp and watch them open the sky on their phone at the party.
Milestone birthdays
- 18th and 21st — a first "forever" possession; the registry number is theirs for life.
- 30th, 40th, 50th — for the person who claims they want nothing. They don't have this.
- 60th, 70th and beyond — a star that will outshine every candle; the certificate frames beautifully.
- Children's birthdays — a star of their very own beats another toy, and the live star page becomes a bedtime ritual.
The honest bit
Star naming is symbolic — only the International Astronomical Union assigns official star names, and it doesn't sell them, to us or anyone. What's real: the star, its coordinates, and the dedication in our register, verifiable by anyone at any time. Read how it works and what it costs.
