Space Christmas gifts here fall into four kinds: a star map of a night they remember, artwork of a favourite subject, a moon phase print for a date, and small pieces for a stocking or a Secret Santa. Every one is printed to order after you buy, with delivery included in the price.
When to order for Christmas
We allow 4 to 9 working days from order to door. Counting back 9 working days from 23 December, and skipping weekends and bank holidays, the last order day for Christmas 2026 is Thursday 10 December. That date is our own estimate from that window; it is not a guarantee from the printer or the courier. Ordering in November leaves room for a mistake to be put right.
A star map for Christmas
A personalised star map charts every star visible from a place at one minute: the night you met, the night of a first Christmas together, the night a child was born. You enter the place, date and time, check it in the free preview and add a title. It starts at £22.99 for an A4 poster; an A3 poster is £34.99 and an A3 framed print in black or natural wood is £74.99.
If you only have the date, a moon phase print records the phase of the Moon on that day, from £22.99. Both are made from the details you type, so check spelling and dates in the preview before you pay: being personalised, they can't be returned for a change of mind.
Space and astronomy Christmas gifts for adults
Choose by subject. Cosmic Cliffs is built from Webb telescope imagery for someone who wants colour; Northern Constellations is a vintage-style chart of the northern sky; Saturn and Andromeda suit a wall that wants one strong shape. Each of these comes as an A4 poster for £17.99, an A3 framed print for £69.00 or a canvas from £51.49. For a keen observer, our guide to gifts for astronomers covers what to buy and what to ask first.
Space Christmas gifts for children
For a child who knows the planets by name, The Solar System, Minimal or Jupiter on their bedroom wall goes well with an evening using our planets in order guide. For one who loves rockets, Visit Mars is a retro travel poster for a trip nobody has made yet.
Secret Santa gifts under £20
Each of the 21 artworks in the main collection comes as an A4 poster for £17.99 or an 11 oz mug for £16.99 (the Lunar Phases mug, for one), delivery included, so a Secret Santa budget under £20 still leaves a choice of subject. Lunar Phases and Aurora are easy picks when you know little about the person; Visit the Moon suits someone with a sense of humour.
Space stocking fillers
A mug fits a stocking where a frame does not. Besides the artwork mugs at £16.99 there are two charted designs at £21.99: the Lunar Cycle Mug, with the eight phases calculated round it, and the Orion Mug, drawn from catalogue star positions.
