How the galaxy is chosen
At any moment there is one point in the sky straight above you, the zenith. As the Earth turns, that point moves about fifteen degrees every hour, and it is different in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Ras Al Khaimah. We calculate it for the date, time and place you give, then choose the catalogued galaxy nearest to it. The artwork prints how far from the zenith it lies, so the choice can be checked.
What the artwork records, and what it does not
It records where and when: the place, the date and time, the galaxy's catalogue number, its distance and your words. It has no star signs, no meanings and no claims about character or fate. The only significance is the one you give it: this was the galaxy above a moment that matters to your family.
Not a star registry either
We do not name or sell galaxies, and nobody can. The galaxy keeps the designation astronomers gave it. What is yours is the framed artwork, and the record that this galaxy was matched to your moment and is not given to anyone else.
