The Science Behind Star Charts

A star map is not a random pattern of stars.
Each star map is based on real astronomical data.

When you choose a date, time, and location, we calculate what the night sky looked like at that exact moment and location. This is done using astronomical databases and calculations also used by astronomers.

The position of stars changes continuously due to the Earth's rotation and the movement of galaxies. As a result, the night sky is unique at every moment.

This means that the star map of:

• a birth
• a first meeting
• a wedding
• a special trip
• or an important milestone

is an exact representation of the sky at that moment.

So you are not looking at a random design, but at a moment that truly existed — captured in the stars.

This makes a star map not only beautiful, but also meaningful and personal.
