Your Star Certificate, as a PDF
Not a screenshot, not a webpage you have to keep a link to — a real, downloadable PDF certificate with the star's name, its constellation, and your dedication, designed to actually be printed and kept.
More than a name on a page.
The PDF includes the star's name exactly as you wrote it, its constellation, a registration number you can look up anytime, and the dedication you write — laid out as an actual certificate, not a printed receipt. It's built to be the thing someone keeps, not just opens once and forgets.
Depending on the package, it can also include a sky chart showing the star's plotted position and additional print-ready pieces — details further down this page.

Frequently asked.
Is this an officially recognized star name?
No — and we want to be upfront about that. This is a personalized star-naming keepsake, not an official astronomical designation recognized by the International Astronomical Union, NASA, or any scientific body. The star itself is real, and the certificate and registry entry are genuinely yours, but no commercial star-naming service — including this one — can officially rename a star in scientific catalogs. What you're getting is a meaningful, personalized keepsake, not a change to how astronomers refer to that star.
Can I actually print it, or is it only meant for screens?
It's designed to be printed. The layout and resolution hold up at normal printing sizes, and some packages include additional print-ready pieces.
Do I need special software to open it?
No — it's a standard PDF, which opens in any PDF reader or browser without anything extra to install.
Is the PDF mine to keep, or does it depend on the site staying up?
Once downloaded, it's a file on your device like any other PDF — yours to keep regardless. Your star's page also stays accessible through your account.
How fast do I actually get the PDF?
Instantly — it's generated the moment checkout completes, with no shipping and no waiting period.
