Een cadeau met betekenis vertelt een persoonlijk verhaal of herinnert iemand aan een bijzonder moment. Daarom kiezen veel mensen voor een gepersonaliseerde sterrenhemelposter of letterposter. Het is een blijvende herinnering die emotie en design combineert.

Ouders waarderen vaak cadeaus met emotionele waarde. Een gepersonaliseerde poster van de geboorte van hun kindje of een bijzonder familie

That can indeed happen. The constellations shown at the centre of the poster may be different from your child’s astrological zodiac sign. Our posters show how the stars really looked at a specific moment and in a specific place. The Earth rotates on its axis and around the sun, so the sky is always changing. If two people look up at the same moment in Cape Town and Amsterdam, they will see different skies. An astrological sign, however, is the same for everyone born between roughly the 21st of one month and the 21st of the next. So it may simply be that the astrological sign was not visible in the sky at birth.

When you order a starry sky from us, our system checks whether these details have been entered before. The check is based on the combination of place of birth, date of birth and time of birth. If these details have already been used, you will see an “oops” message. If you see this message, contact us at hi@mrstarsky.com or through our chat, and we will check whether this poster has really been ordered before.

Your starry sky is generated from your location, date and time. We use several datasets that allow us to see very accurately which stars were, or are, central in the sky at a specific place and moment. Sometimes two posters can look almost the same: one made for a night sky, and another for daytime half a year later. This is caused by the movement of the Earth. As the Earth turns on its axis, the sky appears to rotate around a point near Polaris, the North Star. Every night, the stars return to the same position 4 minutes earlier, because the Earth has moved a little further around the sun. If you would like to check the result on an external site, we recommend: https://www.stelvision.com/astro/sky-map/

When we started MrStarsky, we chose to illustrate a number of the 88 constellations. Five of these illustrations appear on the poster, depending on which constellations are central in the sky. In the Southern Hemisphere, the skies can be so different that none of the illustrated constellations are visible. In that case, our website will show a message for the animal illustration styles saying that it is not possible to create a poster. The other styles can generate a starry sky for all possible locations.

Om jouw sterrenhemelposter te maken hebben we de datum, het tijdstip en de locatie van het bijzondere moment nodig. Hoe nauwkeuriger de gegevens, hoe preciezer de sterrenstand op de poster wordt weergegeven. Je kunt daarnaast een naam, quote of persoonlijke boodschap toevoegen.

At MrStarsky, we distinguish between the starry sky during the day and at night. A daytime sky poster therefore has a lighter colour than a night sky poster. The sun is also shown in the daytime sky. This applies to almost all illustration styles, except the styles by Sella Molenaar.

Depending on the position of the stars, five illustrations of constellations that are central in the sky appear on the poster. The illustrations change and truly belong to the unique starry sky on your poster.
