See your named star from here

Once you have named a star through one of our star packages, we hand you its exact right ascension and declination. Any observatory staff member with a computerised telescope, including a team at Dainik Astronomical Observatory, can slew to those coordinates and point the eyepiece straight at "your" star. Browse the catalogue to see how a naming looks, or check our list of observatories to plan a visit.
