FAQs
Are star maps accurate?
Yes. Every star map is calculated from real astronomical data and verified against the NASA and ESA (Hipparcos and Gaia) star catalogues, with millions of stars rendered individually. No templates and no stock images, just the true night sky for your exact date, time and place.
How good is the star map print quality?
Our star maps are printed in ultra-high detail on 285gsm museum-grade art paper using archival pigment inks. The colours are guaranteed for 200 years, so your star map is made to last a lifetime.
What star map sizes are available?
Five sizes, from A4 (21x30cm) up to 60x80cm, available framed in premium solid wood or unframed.
Can I create a star map for a future or past date?
Yes. We can calculate the night sky for any date, past or future, so you can capture a memory or a moment still to come.
Why is there a time on my star map, and do I need the exact time?
Every star map needs a time to calculate the exact sky. If you are not sure of the time, we default to midnight. Printing the time on your star map is optional, so you can show just the date if you prefer.
