View Your Star LIVE

Name A Star Live is the only star-naming service where you can view your star through an online, robotically-controlled telescope, LIVE on your computer.

Gazing upon the beauty and majesty of the star you name – live – is just another reason why Name A Star Live is the ultimate star naming experience.

Deluxe gift sets, Deluxe Framed gift sets and Ultimate gift sets include a password for a free online telescope viewing of the star you name. So along with the highest quality gift set and the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to have your star name and personalized message launched into space, you’ll actually see a live, telescopic image of your star, not a simulation or animation. You can even take a picture and share it with your friends and family.

This service is provided through an arrangement with SLOOH.com. A SLOOH.com membership gives you unlimited viewing of hundreds of astronomical objects (star, planets, nebulas, etc.), guided by professional astronomers. Just click here to name a star and get ready to see the light.
