| Does the money go to any charitable organizations, and in that case, which ones? |
5 % of the benefit goes to help organizations. It goes to UNICEF, which is a worldwide organization working with helping children. They give children a good health service, clean water, tolerable sanitary conditions, a basic education and safety against violence and assault. UNICEF believes that everyone has a responsibility to see to it that children are safe.
We also support the organization MEDECINS SANS FRONTIERES, that is a charitable organization that helps in disaster relief, epidemics, and natural catastrophes. They also help people that is missing healthiness due to social or geographic isolating. |

| Explain what Global Star Registry does? |
| Giving away a star named after someone special to you is a symbolic novelty gift. Global Star Registry offers a service to name real stars. The stars that are named through Global Star Registry is not recognised in an official body though they are recorded in a book, which is registered in the copyright office of the United States of America. Each star name will be filed and registered once only. It is not possible to actually own a stellar object as nobody (or everybody, depending on your way of looking at it) has ownership. A star is essentially a ball of boiling gas trillions of miles away, so ownership is hardly a viable option anyway! |
|
| Will my star be unique to me? |
| Each star name will be filed and registered in The Global Star Registry once only. The star name will be filed in a Registry Vault and recorded in a book, which is registered in the copyright office of the United States of America. |

| What is a star? |
Stars are huge balls of hot, glowing gases. Our sun is a star. It is just an ordinary star, not the biggest nor the brightest. But the sun is the star that is nearest to our planet Earth. Earth is part of the sun's family of planets, moons, and comets called the Solar System. All of the other stars that we see in the sky are much farther away from Earth.
Long ago people were already naming the brightest stars in the sky and learning where and when to look for them. They also gave names to the constellations, groups of stars that seem to form patterns in the sky. Usually these constellations were named after gods, heroes or animals. |
|
| Is a black hole a star? |
| Some stars are gigantic compared to others. When a massive star like this cools and collapses, it turns into something very special. The matter is crushed and compressed by the huge weight of the collapsing gases. Gravity keeps squeezing and squeezing until the star seems to disappear. It has become a black hole. Anything passing too close to a black hole - even light rays - will be pulled into it and never escape again. That is why a black hole is invisible. Scientists, however, are certain that they have located several black holes in the universe. |
