Why it is meaningful for a new family

A birth dedication can become part of a family archive: the child’s exact name and first date are preserved without inventing an astronomical name.

A real star is selected from our internal astronomical catalogue and remains identified by its scientific catalogue designation. Your chosen name belongs only to the dedication in the A Star For You Private Registry.

The certificate and sky map record the sky connected with the birth date, while the family’s own message remains exactly as entered.

You review the certificate and sky map before checkout. The service is symbolic: it does not transfer ownership of a celestial object or change an official astronomical designation.

What the recipient receives

The family receives a lasting record of the child’s name, first date and the words written for their future. Any physical print follows the times shown on the Shipping page.

Four digital documents

A dedication certificate, astronomical dossier, sky map and observation guide present the personal message alongside verified catalogue data.

Optional premium print

A made-to-order premium print of the sky map is available for eligible products. Production and shipping estimates are shown before purchase.
