Astronomy Gift Ideas for Valentine’s Day
The most romantic day of the year is fast approaching, so now’s the perfect time to start thinking about the ideal gift for the special person in your life. In this article, we’ll take a look at the top astronomy gift ideas for Valentine’s Day.
While a space-themed gift might not be the most obvious choice, Space is more romantic than you might think! There’s Venus, named after the Roman goddess of love, the Andromeda Galaxy, which takes its name from a character from one of ancient Greece’s classic love stories, and even a heart-shaped nebula! Besides, what could be more romantic than spending a night under the stars with that special someone? Thankfully, there are plenty of fantastic options to consider. So, without further ado, here are our top astronomy gift ideas for Valentine’s Day.
Jewellery
Jewellery is, of course, one of the most popular choices for Valentine’s Day gifts. But did you know there’s a large selection of astronomy-related jewellery items out there? For a charm bracelet lover, maybe consider a planet or moon charm. Or if your Valentine prefers necklaces or earrings, you could look for an item based on their favourite constellation. There are even pendants and charms that take inspiration from artificial astronomical objects, such as the Space Shuttle and even the James Webb Space Telescope!
Online Star Gift
For a last-minute gift option, the OSR’s Online Star Gift makes for an excellent personalised digital gift. Along with your star name registration, your gift pack will include a certificate, a personalised letter and message, and a constellation factsheet. And as the gift is entirely digital, you’ll receive it instantly – perfect if you’re reading this on February 13th!
Art
If your significant other is more into art, you’re in luck – there’s a vast choice of decorative, customisable, or personalised artwork options available. You could go for a luxury star map design, space-themed drawings and prints, or even a poster of popular astronomical features.
OSR Gift Pack
Why not consider an OSR Gift Pack for the perfect personalised gift option? Along with a personalised star certificate, your gift pack will also contain a detailed revolving star chart, a glow-in-the-dark star sticker, and coordinates for your newly named star, all elegantly gift-wrapped.
Astronomy Equipment
If your other half is a space buff, then there’s always another piece of astronomy equipment they will appreciate! If they already have a telescope, perhaps consider a new set of eyepieces or an upgraded laser viewfinder. Alternatively, a good set of binoculars are always an excellent choice for enhancing stargazing sessions.
Ornaments
An astronomy-themed ornament could be a great option for a valentine’s gift that’s both sentimental and aesthetically pleasing. Crystal balls with etchings of constellations, or even galaxies, are widely available. Or perhaps consider gemstones that resemble the planets of our solar system. Globes are also a popular choice – and for an out-of-this-world twist, you could pick a globe representation of another celestial body, such as the Moon or Mars.
Books
If you’re buying for a bookworm, there are plenty of astronomically-oriented book choices, both fact and fiction. An almanack that forecasts astronomical events and the stars and planets’ positions is always a handy stargazing companion. Or, for a more mind-expanding experience, a host of books are available from brilliant astronomers and astrophysicists, such as Carl Sagan, Stephen Hawking, Neil deGrasse Tyson, and Brian Cox.
Super Star Gift
For the ultimate personalised astronomy gift, look no further than the OSR Super Star Gift. This luxurious gift option is delivered in a personalised gift box and features an attractive OSR telescope, a fantastic star poster, the ‘Fly me to the stars’ VR set and a cute star globe.
