There are typically two types of interest in name a star programs. One variety are people who genuinely reckon that a star is being officially named for them and might ask about verification. Peculiarly, even if they are told that it’s nothing more than a novelty or a fund raising method like adopting a child in a poor country or a stretch of highway, this spectacular fact does not always often dissuade the star namer.

The other type of name a star client understands that naming a star is only honorary. Astronomical star charts around the world will not be changed. These folks acknowledge that they’re naming a star to bestow money to basic astronomy research like that which we do at Windowpane Observatory, which names galaxies, not name a star. Windowpane Observatory is the only name a star company that actually is a active astronomy observatory. If you name a galaxy at Windowpane Observatory, you actually are invited to come to the observatory, look through a bit telescope, and see the location of your galaxyand the rest of the universe as well. Before spending your money on the name a star companies, give some thought to where the money is going. We hope you will opt to name a galaxy and help fund astronomy research (and visit a real observatory too).
