Thank you for the help. I'm going to look into it further. I think she'll find it a nice gesture, she really loved that cat

No, they have a telescope. That's why I thought about this particular gift

Other posters are contradicting this

Reddit I guess

Makes a bit better of a gift when it's got some "official"ness behind it

What I'm asking is if this particular website is actually a fucking scam, or is just selling the process.

Some of these sites are legitimate scams where they literally make up a star, and send you some bullshit charts.

Some of them are legit, where they actually, albeit not officially, "name" a star after your thing and send you the info on how to see it. And you can actually look at it. It's not officially named but it is a sweet gesture.

I'm asking if this particular site is bullshit or not. I'm not asking about how you feel about star registries. Im not asking about the star itself. I'm asking if this site is an actual bullshit scam, or just a place unofficially naming stars and giving info on how to look at them.

Thank you for the incredible lack of help

So it is actually something they can see? I ask because they do have a telescope

I know it's not officially named, I just want something they can see

What I'm saying is some of these websites just claim they've named a star, it's some random fucking fartball in another hemisphere in buttfuckegypt galaxy and they just send you some crap paperwork and a gift card for a moon t-shirt

This particular site tho, only does 3 types of stars, specifically north America, and gives you information on how to actually see it, and also look at it virtually.
