this is my FAR the stupidest i ever seen on the internet:
Buy yourself or someone a star for $89 USD
"For just $89 USD you get a Star Kit from Global Star Registry complete with a signed and sealed Official Certificate confirming the dedicated name and astronomical coordinates of your very own star. You also get a sky map that helps you locate your star in the sky and provides you with a unique perspective to its surroundings - plus a sumptuously illustrated, easy-to-read book about the stars by the celebrated British astronomer Dr Patrick Moore.
Decide today to write your own or someone else's name in the sky forever. It's simply the greatest gift in the universe. " |

| I wonder what gives that company the right to sell stars at a profit. Its not like they own it in the first place. |

Actually, they are not selling the star itself, just the imprint of it at the sky :wtf: |

| It's not really official and not recognized. Sceintists aren't sitting around talking about the Amy star and the Jessica star. |

I bought my dad a star for his birthday a few years ago - he loved it! It's not the star name you pay for so much as it is the print-out and the star-map in the frame. I thought it was a wonderful gift and I wouldn't mind doing it again for someone someday.
There's soooo many stars out there, and they need more interesting names than XF-4325215B, ya know? Poor little fellas need to feel loved, too. :(
:D
And it was $50 when I did it... guess maybe it's catching on? |
