How many star projectors do you need? I still don’t have an answer. It started with a blue, Northern-Lights style projector, then one capable of projecting actual stars, albeit not in the right color. Now I’m eyeing up these Prime Day star projector deals, finger over the ‘Buy Now’ button, and I’m inviting you to join me.
Not all star projectors are the same, mind you; some are there purely to create a relaxing display, aiding meditation or lulling a child to sleep. Meanwhile, others are more scientifically accurate, designed to educate rather than relax. It’s a sad fact that, thanks to light pollution, the displays these projectors put out can be prettier and clearer than the ones you’ll see in your own back garden.
