Yes - and this is what makes us different. Most star-naming services assign you a random star. We let your recipient explore an interactive map of the real night sky, browse constellations, filter by hemisphere visibility, and personally select the star that feels right to them. It turns the gift into an experience, not just a transaction.
Absolutely. Every registration generates a beautifully designed high-resolution PDF certificate - perfect for printing at home or at a print shop and framing. It includes the star name, constellation, precise coordinates (Right Ascension and Declination), magnitude, distance, registration date, and registry number.
To be upfront: astronomers use scientific catalogue numbers for stars, and only the International Astronomical Union (IAU) officially names celestial bodies. Your star name is permanently recorded in the Still Shining Registry - our own catalogue - and paired with your star's real coordinates. It's a symbolic, meaningful gift, not a scientific designation. That's exactly what makes it personal.
Yes. You can send the gift link immediately, or schedule it to arrive on a specific date and time - perfect for birthdays, anniversaries, Christmas morning, or Valentine's Day. You'll receive a notification when your recipient opens their gift.
Our instant chat support can help with anything - from finding a lost certificate to correcting a star name. Most issues are resolved in under a minute. We also offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee: if you're not happy, we'll make it right.
