Why Should You Name a Star After Someone You Love?

May 5th, 2009

To many, this is a unique concept. Why give average gifts when you can name a star after someone you love? This is a thoughtful way to memorialize someone who has passed, or let someone you love know just how special they truly are to you.

Birthdays, Memorial Day, Mother’s Day or any other special day is the perfect occasion for a gift such as this. Everyone gives perfume, candles, and jewelry as gifts, but you can do something totally original that will never be forgotten. When you give a gift like this, your special loved one will know that you think enough of them to give them a gift that lasts throughout eternity.

Is there someone very near to your heart that loves astronomy? There could be no better way to show them you care than with a gift like this. When you name a star for that special person, you give them their own little piece of the galaxy. Imagine how they will feel when they gaze into the clear night sky to see their own special star!

What do you get when you name a star for someone special? You will receive a sky map that provides you with the exact location of your loved ones star, and gives you a clear perspective of it’s surroundings. This makes it easy for the recipient to locate their star with a telescope or binoculars.

Your loved one will also receive a star certificate that is signed and sealed, and contains the given name and astronomical coordinates of their star. The name will then be recorded and registered in the copyright office of the United States. A beautiful engraved pendant is also included, in your choice of keychain or necklace.

As you can imagine, your loved one will be shocked and amazed when you present them with this one-of-a-kind gift. Is there someone special in your life that deserves more than an ordinary present? Name a star for them! They will never forget how much thought and love you put in to finding them the perfect gift.
