A Father's Day gift he'll never expect
Dads are hard to buy for because they never want anything. A star sidesteps the whole problem: it's personal, it's permanent, and it comes with something to actually do — walk outside together, open the star finder, and point his phone at the star that carries his name. That's a Father's Day moment, not just a present.
Delivery is instant, so it works even if Father's Day is tomorrow — or today. Print the certificate to hand over at lunch, or send the reveal link and let him open it himself. See how it works in four steps.

Honest answers
A few things people ask.
Is the star really registered?
Yes. We assign one of 50,000+ catalogued stars with verifiable RA/Dec coordinates. The naming is a private registration through Still Shining — not an IAU change (no commercial body can do that). What you receive is real, and yours.
How is this different from "buying land on the moon"?
Honestly? Both are symbolic. The difference: you can see your star. We send you the exact coordinates so you can look up tonight, from your backyard, and know which one it is. That's what makes it feel real.
Can I find the star with my phone?
Yes. Included with every star is access to our star finder — a web app, no download needed. On any clear night, open it on your phone, point it at the sky, and it guides you straight to your star. Wherever you are in the world, whenever you need to find them.
Is there a subscription, or do I pay once?
One payment. $59 AUD. The star stays named, forever. No annual fees, no renewals. If we ever shut down, your certificate and coordinates are still yours.
