Birthday Star

[Rexmons]

From Neatorama:

Birthday Stars is a generator that will find a star whose distance matches your age in light years from earth. For example, if you are 28 years and 6 months old, it will find a star 28.5 light years away from earth. The light arriving now from “your” star was generated at the time of your birth. Light travels at over a billion kilometers per hour {wiki}, so these stars are very far away.

Your Birthday Star:

Your birthday star is in the constellation Orion. It has the name π3 (Pi3) Orionis in Johann Bayer's Uranometria star catalog. It is also called 1 Orionis in the Historia Cœlestis Britannica of John Flamsteed and Edmund Halley. It is called NS 0449+0657 in the NStars database.

It has visual magnitude 3.19 meaning that you could see this star with the naked eye in good viewing conditions. It is marked in the center of this star chart, at celestial coordinates (J2000 equinox):

Right ascension 4:49:50.4
Declination 6:57:40.6

This star is 26.3 light years away, which means that the light we see from it today set off on its journey at about the same time that you were born. Come back in a month or two and your birthday star may change, as the light from more distant stars reaches Earth.
