You Can't Own a Star
The honest $1 star deed. Legally meaningless. On purpose.
Nobody can own a star, not via $40 registries, not at all. We sell an honest $1 deed to a real catalogued star that admits exactly that. Real coordinates, zero legal standing, one dollar.
I kept seeing "is naming a star a scam?" threads, and the honest answer is: kind of. It is not illegal, but most registries charge $40 to $100 for a certificate with no official standing, sold as if it had some. So I built the inverse: same legal standing (none), 97.5% cheaper, and the disclaimer IS the headline, printed in 56-point type on the deed itself. The deed generates entirely in your browser from the HYG astronomical catalog: a real catalogued star, real coordinates, and a real sky-neighbourhood chart. The $1 is an honest Gumroad purchase, because a site whose whole premise is honesty can hardly start by assuming you are a liar. Deeds are proudly non-exclusive. Would love to hear which star you claimed, and whether the brutally honest page two made you laugh.
