Delivered as a private link, not a printed poster. The stars are calculated for the date, time and city you give us, from a real star catalog, so they sit exactly where they were above you. It all happens in one quiet night on a hill, far from the city lights. It starts on a plaid blanket by moonlight, with a cardboard star wheel and their name above it. They turn the wheel, the months clicking past, until your date lines up with your time and it settles into place. Then they look up. Through a brass telescope everything is blurry, so they slide the focus ring until the stars turn sharp, then sweep the telescope across the sky to the one star that glows a little warmer. A pen writes "This one is yours, Emma." and the star's real catalog name appears below. Next, numbered stars appear and they join them one by one with a thin gold line: a heart, your initials or the date. Beside some of the stars, the pen writes your 4 short memories. Back on the blanket a folded note is waiting, and your letter is written onto the page in ink, line by line. After a quiet moment a shooting star crosses the sky. They tap it as it passes (miss it and another one comes), and your wish is written under "Make a wish". Last, they hold their finger down to watch the night go by: the stars wheel around the pole star and leave trails like a long exposure photo, until the sky turns to dawn at the real hour. A card closes it: "The sky over Istanbul", the date and time, the coordinates, their star's name and your last line.

Nothing is shipped. ▸ What is real: the positions of about 800 of the brightest stars for your date, time and city (from a real star catalog), the Moon's place and phase, the turn of the sky through the night and the hour of dawn. ▸ What is drawn for the screen: the view faces north (south in the Southern Hemisphere), stars are shown a little bigger so they read on a phone, and a fine dust of very faint background stars is added for depth. The hill, the grass and the blanket are illustrations. ▸ The heart, initials or date is laid on real stars wherever one is close enough; where none is, a faint point is added. It is a shape for the two of you, not a real constellation. ▸ Their star is a real named star that was above you that night. We pick it from the sky, and its name is on the card. ▸ A moment in daylight? We still show the stars where they were at that hour. ▸ The names and words in the listing images are a demo. Yours will show your own sky and letter. ▸ Sound starts after the first tap, as phones require. ▸ Because every letter is made for one person, we cannot accept returns, but we will gladly fix any detail until it is right. ▸ Cancellations are possible within 12 hours of ordering.
