Name a Star or Name a Galaxy for Astronomy Research
Our astronomy observatory has been naming stars and galaxies for people for 15 years as a fundraiser. There seems to be two sorts of people who have curiosity in the name a star service. The first kind are those who actually reckon a star is being officially named for them and might ask questions about verification.even if they are assured that their star is simply a novelty or a means of raising money like adopting a child overseas or a stretch of highway, this large fact does not inevitably deter the star namer.
The second kind of name a star customer understands that star naming is merely honorary. Astronomy star graphs around the world will not change. These folks recognize that they’re naming a star to contribute to basic astronomical exploration similar to that which we do at Windowpane Observatory, which names galaxies, not stars. Windowpane Observatory is the only star naming registry that is a active astronomical observatory in the Sonoran Desert in Southern Arizona. If you name a galaxy at Windowpane, you actually are invited to visit the observatory, look through a telescope, and see the universe and the rest of the universe as well. Before you start to spend your money on the name a star companies, regard where that money is going. Perhaps you will decide to name a star or galaxy and donate to astronomical research (and visit a real observatory too).
