What they get
- A real, visible star — we pick one that isn’t named with us yet
- A page with their name on it, ready to share
- A PDF certificate with a QR code back to the star
- Optional reveal email — only if you choose to send it
- Your receipt. That’s it. No shipping, no kit in the mail
This is a commemorative name. The International Astronomical Union is the only official namer of stars. Stellara does not sell official names. Is naming a star real?
Deadline
Order by December 24, 2026. It’s a digital gift. If you order by then, they can open the page on Christmas morning. After that, it’s still a gift — just not a Christmas-morning one.
There is no printed kit on this page.
We auto-select a visible unnamed star. 30-minute hold at checkout.

Questions
Will it arrive in time for Christmas?
Yes, if you order by December 24, 2026. Stellara is digital: a page and a PDF. Nothing ships.
Is this an official star name?
No. The IAU is the only organization that officially names stars. A Stellara name is a gift — symbolic, recorded on their page and certificate. Read more
What do they actually get?
A star page they can open on their phone, and a PDF certificate with a QR code. You get the receipt. They get an email only if you opt in at checkout.
Can I pick the star?
Yes. Use Browse if you already have one in mind. Otherwise /gift picks a visible unnamed star for you.
Can I print the certificate?
Yes. It’s a PDF. Print it at home if you want something under the tree. We don’t mail a kit.
What if I wait until Christmas Eve?
Order by December 24. Same-day is fine because it’s digital. Don’t wait for a carrier.
