The starry sky is an endless source of wonder. These thousands of tiny shiny dots that compose our solar system make more than just a magnificent view, they also remind us of those summer evenings lying in the grass watching the sky. Every memory is unique. So is every star map. Thanks to the Hipparcos mission's star catalog, we can create a personalized map of your stars and represent their exact appearance at any location on earth, past or present. Recreate the night sky on a specific date or for important moments in your life: the birth of a child, first date, or wedding day. Capture those moments of wonder with a custom star map poster of that place and time.
It is a unique and personalized poster that shows the constellations and stars that were visible at a specific moment of the year, which you can choose yourself or use the birth date and time of the person you are giving the map to. To create a custom star map, we have developed software that allows us to accurately calculate your starry sky for any location, date, and time. We use German and European star catalogs, such as the Hipparcos catalog from the European Space Agency, to locate and map the position of stars in the sky. This allows us to create a high-resolution poster that shows the stars and constellations as they were visible at that specific moment. Our poster is printed on high-quality paper, which ensures exceptional image quality. We offer several different sizes to fit all budgets and spaces. Your custom star map also comes in a variety of colors that will fit almost any kind of decor. Hang it in your home and remember a unique moment shared with your loved ones.
If you’re looking for a gift that will last, consider a custom star map. It’s a great way to commemorate an event or special occasion and will be cherished by the recipient for years to come. A star map is a personalized gift. It commemorates a time and place in the stars. It is a gift that can be given as an anniversary present, first date present or as a wedding gift. If you're looking for a gift for Valentine's Day, why not consider giving a star map of your first date, depicting the stars from the night you first met. Or maybe the star alignment on his or her birthday. It is unique to the person you gift it to and can be given time and again for each special moment. It's these special moments that make a personalized star map so meaningful. It is not only beautiful, but also means something special to the person receiving it.
