Buy A Star And Name A Star As A Gift For Someone Special

If you are looking for a unique christmas gift idea or perhaps a big gift for a loved one’s birthday or your anniversary, you may have considered buying someone a star. For many years people have been able to buy a star for under $100. There are many websites out there where you can buy a star for only $30. You won’t actually be able to get your hands on a real star, but the websites say that you will be able to name it. Having a star named after you may be the most romantic gift I have ever heard of. I certainly wouldn’t mid it if my husband named a star after me – hint, hint.

As an avid star trek fan, I have to admit that the ability to buy a star is something I have considered very seriously. With the amazingly affordable rates out there today, I can’t think of a good reason why not to. My only concern is figuring out whether if I were to buy a star, would it really be recognized by the name I give it? One website I found claimed that the star would be registered with the universal star registry. Sounds pretty official!

I think it would be lovely if I could buy a star for all of my loved ones in an area that I can see from my backyard. It would be wonderful if they were all right next to each other and I could look up and see a sparkling homage to my family in the night sky. For many people this is the sentiment that pulls them in but I have to tell you that after doing a bit of research I am sad to report that no one can really buy a star.

Where to buy a star? The International Astronomical Union is the only entity on earth with the authority to give names to stars and they clearly state that they are not in the business of selling stars. If you buy a star from one of the many companies out there that claim to sell them, you will unfortunately only be wasting your money. If you visit the International Astronomical Union’s website, you will find a statement from them that unequivocally states that no one in the world has the ability to sell or buy a star. I was sorry to read this because the idea of buying a star seems so wonderful but I consider it my duty to warn potential customers of this fraud.
