Good day!
I got a present from my colleagues, a star with my name.
Quite cool, nice feeling, altough I know its kind a kidding. But anyway - the company (starregistry.com) says they are taking coordinates from Guide Star Catalogue - The Guide Star Catalog (GSC) is also known as the Hubble Space Telescope, Guide Catalog (HSTGC).
Ok then.. As i know, all scientific catalogues as protected with intellectual copyright, right? So - how can we interpret this - legal or not? Or anyone can take some coordinates from the open sources, compile them in its "own unique registry" and cheat people? And its all legally?
