For a hands-on 'real life' star gazing experience, we have put guides together to show you the best telescopes for kids and the best binoculars for kids. For scientific accuracy, you'll want to look at Sega Toys Homestar Flux or the National Geographic Astro Planetarium, though these will cost you more.

While it is a novelty item, we were pleasantly surprised with the build quality, which is actually pretty good. The stand resembles the moon's surface with footprints, which is where the astronaut's feet slot into to keep the astronaut upright and stable. The Astronaut Starry Sky Star Projector is a well-made novelty star projector that every kid, or space fan, will love to have in their bedroom.The head can't be lifted off with one hand, and it stays attached when you turn it upside down, making it feel strong and sturdy. is there is no option to rotate the lasers which shine from the top right of the astronaut's helmet, only the nebulae rotates. Of course, you don't get the 'cute' astronaut figurine, but it might be more appropriate for an adult. Tantse Walter is a photographer and adventurer that's spent seven years facilitating global adventurous expeditions. As with the models mentioned above, the 'stars' or 'nebulae' aren't at all scientific like they are in the Sega Toys Homestar Flux or the National Geographic Astro Planetarium, but are very bright and other-worldly and can be customized into various configurations and speeds.

We first reviewed the astronaut starry sky projector in the daytime with natural light coming in through the windows. The supplied remote control (which needs two AAA batteries, not included) can be used to operate the astronaut's features. The output (in terms of power and area coverage) is slightly less than some of the other models in our best star projector guide, but this is perhaps as it's likely going to be in a child's bedroom where the projection area isn't going to be huge. You can adjust the brightness, turn the lasers on and off, and adjust the 'breathing' frequency of the lasers and nebula.
You can switch the colors of the Nebula, change the speed of the Nebula's rotation and adjust the brightness of the lights. It's certainly a conversation starter and would equally be at home in the background of a video gamer's room or a streamer/YouTuber etc. Before reviewing this projector, we had expected it to feel cheap and toyish to the touch, with a poor-quality finish. As you can see, the star projector in this model has been cleverly integrated into the body of a space-suit-wearing astronaut.

It's very easy to use, the lights are bright and customizable, the lasers will fill a small room, and the operation is quiet, all features that make for a good star projector. The stand's simple design keeps the astronaut in place, and even when pushed to test for wobble, the device doesn't fall over. Star projectors are a quick and easy way to change a room's entire 'feel' and the Astronaut Starry Sky Star Projector is no different.You can use the buttons on the device itself to operate some of the functions, but you'll need the remote to adjust the rotation speeds and to use the sleep timer, so don't lose it! Thanks to its novelty space-walking astronaut design, it would be the perfect gift for a young space fan. the motor which rotates the lights is exceptionally quiet, you can only really hear it if you press your ear right up against it. The latter of the two features an in-built speaker and the star projections are true to the time and date you select, though it lacks the sophisticated appeal of the Homestar Flux. The power cable (USB-A to DC) plugs into the astronaut's backpack (in real life, this would be the Primary Life Support System), and this is also where the power button and two-mode buttons sit.

For a basic laser pointer to fill your child's room with colored 'stars' or add some atmosphere to a games room or music room, BlissLights have the tiny BlissLights StarPort USB projector which would fit the bill, although we'd recommend it only for children of an age who know not to look directly into the Class 2 laser beam.
We wanted to see if it performs as well as its more discreet counterparts, or if it is just a novelty item that lacks the functionality we have come to expect from a quality star projector. Tantse’s photos have been purchased by notable companies such as Ford and Cross Country Trains as well as an upcoming book about the songs, rituals and musical history of Capoeira. You should be able to get the light projection at the angle you want regardless of where you place it. Aside from the slightly plasticky feel to the buttons, it feels solid in the hand and has some weight, thus not like a cheap toy. As with many of the other best star projectors we've reviewed, our astronaut features a sleep timer that can be set to 45 minutes or 90 minutes.
