I had a girlfriend that gave me one of those once. It was from the International Star Registry; came with a certificate and a map of where the star is. Kind of makes me wonder if all these different star-naming organizations overlap each other in the naming. Cool, Chris! I had a girlfriend that gave me one of those once.

I didn't find a link to the website anywhere in the post, you might want to add that. I did manually type it in from the image though. Can't wait to try it out!

Although you could have your own star, in a sense, it's never truly yours. Also none of the databases from all these companies are joined together in anyway at all. This means there can be multiple people that own one star.At this point the International Astronomical Union does not promote the idea of owning a star, or even keep record of this data. So pretty much, you get a completely useless certificate. As far as I know, and what many astronomers I know say, these are completely pointless.
