The certificate is meaningless. No astronomers use commercial star databases

Has anyone ever named a star after someone? Is it worth it? Was it well received? Any advice?

I'll do it for $49. It's a really nice certificate.

I've got a better deal. Send me $10,000 and I'll give you naming rights to all

If the star naming doesn't work, maybe a donation to The Human Fund?
