Star Treatment
An ad on a radio station."For a modest sum of 55 USD you
can have The Special Astronomical
Bodies Registry name a star after you.
You will receive a certified certificate
certifying your star certification.
Imagine how surprised a loved one
will be to discover a star named after them."
My thought on this is does the actual star ie
astronomical body receive any compensation
from this fabulous example of absurdly
facile commercialization of natural
phenomena such as receiving the
human who purchased it name, such as
Mildred Harrington or Bobby Radcliffe in exchange,
because what need hath yon star of financial recompense?
in exchange? Such questions plague me. :-)
