Where can I find global star registry coupons ?

I would really like to make my mom feel special this February.

And I was thinking of a star registered and named after her,

well, it would be a nice gift, but is there any discount coupons

so i could buy a certificate cheaper?Where can I find global star registry coupons ?You might find a site that will sell you a fancy piece of paper that says something like that but it is NOT REAL and a COMPLETE HOAX to get you to give them your money. No one can name a star. This is only someones way to scam you out of your money. Do not do this.



Spend your money on a membership to a local astronomy club or Astronomical Society instead. You will get so much more for your money than just some stupid piece of paper.



If you join a club, you can attend a few of their star parties and try out members scopes as well as members will help teach you where the treasures in the sky are located. Most clubs have loaner scopes and extensive libraries that you can gather more information from too. Most clubs will have monthly membership meetings with informative presentations given by members and by guest speakers. You can really learn a lot from these clubs and an added plus is all the great new friends you make there too. Go to this site to find a club in your area. http://www.astroleague.org/societies/lis鈥?/a>

This only has clubs that belong to the National Astronomy League, so there are many more which do not appear on this list. Continue searching google if you don't see one in your area here.



Our club hosts many public star parties every year and there is usually some poor schmuck who fell for this fake scheme and they will bring us their fancy looking piece of paper and ask us to show them their "star". We have yet to be able to distinguish even one of these as a valid star coordinate with one distinguishable star. These hoax sites don't even use real stars for the trash they sell. It makes me so mad that there are people out there who are getting rich on scamming people like this. Most that I have seen have tiny tiny print that says "for entertainment purposes only" so they can't be arrested but I have even seen some that don't say that.



Please do not give these crooks your money. If you must do something like this, then just print your own fancy piece of paper. If you must spend your money, then buy a membership to a club so that you can learn to enjoy the stars for years to comeWhere can I find global star registry coupons ?If you want to make your mom special, do anything, but don't buy her a star. That kind of stuff is pure fraud, since nobody is authorized to name stars except the IAU (You can give stars any name you want, but nobody has to use your name... it is only your private matter) and the IAU has very strict rules on how to name stars. So strict that most of the 2.5 million known stars will be without names until colonized...so maybe forever.



Star Registry has no right to name stars, and in reality, from astronomers who tested it, they actually don't even do it. Star Registries claims about where the stars are and how bright they should be are far away from reality, and they had already been caught selling the same star three times.



Better buy something real for your mom. Not a sheet of paper that is not worth the money.



The rules for naming stars, BTW, are simple:

- Stars can be named that are named since ancient times, eg Aldebaran.

- Stars can be named that are the first discovered kind of a new special class of star, or have other very special attributes. Eg Barnard's Star, Pistol star or Proxima Centauri.

- Stars that are visible part of a constellation get a designation by the constellation, eg Alpha Centauri.

- All others get numerical designations that contain hints on the way how they had been discovered.Where can I find global star registry coupons ?The firm that sells you this will be just as valid as you doing it yourself, as already pointed out, its a con. Sorry to knock the idea, nice but people out there are going to make money off you with no thought for your intention.Where can I find global star registry coupons ?
I don't know of discount coupons -- I also do know that these are nice looking certificates, but they don't actually have any authority to "sell" or "name" a star .
