I couldn't wait to get this star map. Shipping was fast and it was an even more beautiful in person than I expected!
The quality of the poster is excellent. It is so thick and richly pigmented, I almost hated to frame it so it couldn't be touched!
Truly a special gift and I would recommend 100% if you want something to commemorate a really special event in your life!
She loves looking at the stars but the night in question on her print there was a heavy snowstorm and we slid into a guardrail doing 40 this knocked our headlights out and we had to stop and buy shoelaces to tie them in so that we could complete the 2 hours left on our journey... she loved the reminder of that night.
Amazing to work with and were able to create a gift that will be cherished forever. They were super quick as well especially during the busy/COVID holiday season. Thank you!

The quality unreal, I've never seen something this well done, it fits perfectly in on the stairs my mum and dad absolutely love it, overall over the moon!
https://underluckystars.com make beautiful star maps. It's actually a really cool concept and perfect gift for loved one. Everything was as described (actually I thought the map looked even better than on their site). Shipping was fast and their support team were super helpful. Couldn't ask for more.
It is so beautiful, designs are sharp. Beautiful picture! I love it all. However be careful because it's matted it's easy so scratch and leave a permanent mark on your picture!
Hi Emma,
Thank you for your feedback. We are very happy to read that you love your Star Map. Yes it is important to handle your poster with care!
They display the sky incorrectly. The skies of every date and every time are flipped along the north-south direction. They all display the sky on a "facing south" orientation, but flip it for some stupid reason. They try to conserve the cardinal directions, but in reality, when you're facing south when looking at the night sky, cardinal west is to your right and cardinal is to your left. It is completely flipped in their version. Their rendering is not truly realistic. Homemade planetariums are more accurate than this. Search up and compare the same dates, locations, and times from this website and https://skyandtelescope.org/interactive-sky-chart/ or https://stellarium-web.org/ This website has it flipped the wrong way. Constellations are so obviously backwards. Plus, I tried to contact them about this issue and tried to find the easy-way-out by telling me they are correct because they use information from the Yale Bright Star Catalog instead of looking into the problem sympathetically.
Hi John,
Thank you for raising this.
Regarding what you can see on our star maps, to map the celestial hemisphere, we originally decided to use stereographic projection, as we have found that most historical star charts use it or something very similar, nevertheless, we could have picked any of the dozens of other projection techniques. The point being, choosing a map projection and its parameters is mostly a question of "taste" as well as utilitarian considerations of the map creator.
Based on early feedback on our project, we decided to switch to a different projection aspect. We elected to switch the aspect point to a zenith point above the chosen location because we have found that the mirrored position of cardinal directions is confusing for the eye that is used to North -> East -> South -> West (CW), especially considering how prominent these directions are in our design. With the new aspect, we could keep the "traditional" order that most people are used to on maps of the Earth while keeping the projection factual.
The projection we use is true, but the aspect is different. You can think of it as "the celestial hemisphere looks from above", or, sentimentally put, the view from Heaven. Indeed, not a typical choice of projection.
These are the thoughts that went into the decision of our projection,
Ordered this for my daughter to display her birth sky. It's beautiful and she loves it! Perfect unique gift that is sure to be cherished!
Lovely to read your review. Very happy to know your daughter loves the star map of the moment of her birth
The best star map I've ever seen! Thank you! We have two star maps already and they are very beautiful and with great quality. I strongly recommend under lucky stars!
Beautiful and perfect gift! It was easy to personalize and order. My bf loved it! Will definitely be ordering again in the future.
Hi Angel,
Thank you for your review we are very happy to read that both you and your boyfriend love your star map.
Answer: The fact that they verify the authenticity of what they provide. Nice options for customizing.
Answer: Poor Quality, delivered entirely wrong color (Purple) NOT THE SHARP BLUE AS shown on the screen. I have attempted and asked for both a refund, or to remake it, and ship by requested date, before Christmas Day, as it's a Christmas Gift! They acknowledge my response email, have done absolutely nothing to rectify my order, yet sent this survey?!? Upsetting! They are located in Brazil, so good luck getting justice. They suck, this company. I AM VERY UPSET!
Answer: Scam Company No response to Refund / Return Request
