Your birthday star is in the constellation Pavo. It has the name δ (Delta) Pavonis in Johann Bayer's Uranometria star catalog. It is called NS 2008-6610 in the NStars database.

It has visual magnitude 3.55 meaning that you could see this star with the naked eye in good viewing conditions. It is marked in the center of this star chart, at celestial coordinates (J2000 equinox):
Right ascension 20:8:43.6
Declination -66:10:55.5

This star is 19.9 light years away, which means that the light we see from it today set off on its journey at about the same time that you were born. Come back in a month or two and your birthday star may change, as the light from more distant stars reaches Earth.


Whats yours?

How can they call this your "Birthday Star" when it changes so frequently? Anything related with birthdays is usually given ON the birthdate and is constant.

Pfft, seems like a pretty pointless novelty... oh wait, this is the internet :D

YAY! my start is one of the brightest in the sky.

This thing sucks. I told it I was born today and it gave me a star that was more than 4 light years away and still said "the light we see from it today set off on its journey at about the same time that you were born." The sun isn't included in their database?

EDIT: Oh yeah, almost forgot my real star...
