Star Registry - Read This Before You Buy A Star


It looks like the perfect gift idea. You purchase a star, name it after your loved one, and then present them with a certificate, the star coronets and all this other fancy stuff that makes it look like you bought a star for them.

Buy A Star - Too Good To Be True?


I have to admit I was initially skeptical when I heard about Star Registry and the ability to buy a star. In fact, I already had previous knowledge that the scientific community does not recognized any star names other than those which they name themselves - which are nothing but long strings of number.
