A symbolic keepsake, not an official IAU star name. Here’s the honest bit ✦

✦ CAELUM STAR REGISTRY ✦ EST. MMXIX ✦ 30 DAY GUARANTEE

Loved it, or your money back.

Not over the moon within 30 days? We'll refund you, no fuss. And your star's registration is guaranteed yours alone, logged in perpetuity and never reissued to anyone, ever. That part's forever.

the caelum promise ✦

An honest gift, done properly.

No inflated numbers, no invented reviews. Just real stars, a keepsake to treasure, and a few promises we actually keep.

Every star is real

Each name is matched to a genuine, catalogued star with real coordinates you can actually find in the night sky. Never a made-up point of light.

Yours, and only yours

The moment you name a star, it is struck from our catalogue and held in the registry in perpetuity. We never give a named star to anyone else.

A promise in writing

Everything arrives instantly and is backed by a 30-day money-back guarantee. If your keepsake is not perfect, we will make it right.

the honest answers ✦

Questions, answered straight.

Is this an official scientific name?+
Nope, and we'll always be straight with you. Only the International Astronomical Union officially names stars, and nobody can sell that right (not us, not anyone). What you get is a real, catalogued star, a name that's genuinely yours in the Caelum Registry, and our promise it'll never be given to anyone else.
Can I actually see my star?+
Yes. Every star has real coordinates, and your certificate includes a chart showing exactly where it is. Brighter ones you can spot with the naked eye; fainter ones with binoculars or a telescope. Filter by brightness when you search to pick one you can see.
Is my star really mine forever?+
Forever. The moment you claim it, it's struck from the catalogue and logged in the register under your name in perpetuity. We never offer a claimed star to anyone else. One star, one person. No take-backsies.
I know the exact star I want. Can I claim it?+
Absolutely. Type its catalogue number (HD, HIP, TYC, HR or GJ) straight into the search and we'll pull it up so you can name it directly, as long as it isn't already claimed or one of the famous, officially-named few.
How fast do I get it?+
Everything is digital and instant. Your certificate, star chart and any gift materials arrive in your inbox, and in your account, within minutes of purchase, ready to print at home or send on. No shipping, anywhere in the world.
What if I'm not happy?+
You've got a 30-day money-back guarantee. If it's not perfect, tell us and we'll refund you, no fuss.
okay, real talk ✦

These names are a lovely keepsake, not an official scientific designation. Only the International Astronomical Union officially names stars, and nobody can buy that right. We'd never pretend otherwise.

But here's the promise that absolutely IS real: your star's name gets logged, it's yours, and we will never, ever give it to someone else. One star, one person, forever. Pinky promise.
