Collection of space themed gifts arranged on a dark background with stars

30 Space Themed Gifts for Every Budget

🌙

Whether you've got £10 to spend or £200, there's a space gift out there that'll land perfectly. We've sorted 30 of the best space themed gifts by price so you can skip straight to your budget and start picking.

Why Space Gifts Work for Everyone

Space doesn't discriminate. A five-year-old loves the Moon just as much as a fifty-year-old. That's what makes space themed gifts so versatile. You're not guessing about hobbies or tastes. If someone's even slightly interested in the cosmos, any of these gifts will hit the mark.

We've broken everything into four price brackets. You'll notice some of our favourites appear in multiple sections because they offer different packages at different price points. That's by design. Let's go.

Under £15

1. Moon Register Standard Package (2 Acres of Lunar Land) - £14.99

For under fifteen quid, you can give someone their own piece of the Moon. The Moon Register Standard Package includes 2 acres of lunar land, a personalised certificate with their name, a detailed moon map, and a 50-page digital photobook about the lunar surface. It's the kind of gift that makes people's faces light up. They'll be telling everyone they own land on the Moon. As budget gifts go, this one punches way above its weight.

2. Space Socks

Everyone needs socks. Not everyone has socks covered in planets, rockets, and constellations. Space themed socks cost around £5-£10 for a decent pair or a multipack. They're a fun stocking filler or a cheeky add-on to a bigger gift. Brands like Happy Socks and Stance do space collections, but you can find great options for less on the high street too.

3. NASA Mug

A classic NASA logo mug costs about £8-£12. There are loads of variations. The retro worm logo, the classic meatball logo, blueprint-style rocket diagrams, and ones featuring specific missions. Some change colour when you pour hot liquid in. It's a small thing but it gets used every single day, and that's more than you can say for most gifts.

4. Star Map Print

A basic star map print (non-personalised) showing constellations visible from the northern or southern hemisphere goes for about £8-£15. Frame it and it looks like proper wall art. You can find them on Etsy, in bookshops, or from educational suppliers. It's simple, attractive, and actually useful if they're learning to identify constellations.

5. Glow-in-the-Dark Star Stickers

These have been around forever and they still work. A pack of glow-in-the-dark stars for about £6-£10 turns a bedroom ceiling into a night sky. The better ones are quite bright and last for hours. Perfect for kids, but honestly, plenty of adults enjoy them too. Nobody's judging.

6. Astronaut Pen

The Fisher Space Pen was designed for writing in zero gravity. You can pick up a bullet-style model for around £12-£15. It writes upside down, in extreme temperatures, and underwater. It's a proper conversation piece and a genuinely useful everyday carry item. Space history in your pocket.

7. Pocket Solar System Guide

A laminated fold-out pocket guide to the solar system costs about £5-£8 and fits in a back pocket. It's got planet facts, scale comparisons, and key statistics. Good for kids who are learning about space, or for anyone who wants a quick reference during stargazing sessions. Cheap, lightweight, genuinely handy.

£15 - £50

8. Name a Star (Star Register) - From £19.99

Give someone their very own star in the night sky. Star Register lets you name a star after anyone and provides a personalised certificate plus a detailed star chart. It's hugely popular for birthdays and anniversaries. The certificate looks beautiful framed, and there's something genuinely romantic about pointing at the sky and saying "that one's yours."

9. Moon Lamp - £15-£35

A 3D-printed moon lamp based on real NASA topographical data. It sits on a wooden stand and glows warm white, or switches between colours with a tap. The surface has all the craters and detail of the actual Moon. At around £15-£35 depending on size, it's one of the most popular space gifts around. Looks incredible in a dark room.

10. Beginner Telescope - £30-£50

You can get a perfectly decent beginner telescope for under £50. The Celestron PowerSeeker 70EQ is a popular choice at around £45. It'll show you the Moon's craters in detail, Jupiter's moons, and Saturn's rings on a clear night. It's not going to rival the Hubble, obviously, but for someone who's never used a telescope it's a genuine eye-opener. Literally.

11. Space LEGO Sets - £20-£50

LEGO's space range keeps growing. In this price bracket you've got the Lunar Roving Vehicle (£24.99), the Rocket Launch Centre, and various Creator 3-in-1 space sets. They're fun to build, great to display, and appeal to ages 8 through 80. LEGO is one of those gifts where the building process is half the fun. Stick on a space documentary while you build. Perfect evening.

12. Mars Land (Piece of Mars) - From £19.99

Once they've got the Moon, why not give them Mars too? Piece of Mars offers personalised certificates for land on the Red Planet. Same concept as Moon Register but for Mars. Pair the two together and they'll be the biggest extraterrestrial landowner in their postcode. Makes for a great combo gift.

13. Lordship Title - From £29.99

This one's not space themed exactly, but hear us out. Lordship Titles lets you gift someone a genuine British lordship title. Combine it with Moon land and they become a Lord or Lady with property on the Moon. That's a gift story nobody forgets. It's the kind of pairing that gets a genuine laugh and then goes on display in the living room.

14. Constellation Map (Personalised) - £30-£50

A custom constellation map shows the exact night sky from any location on any date. Wedding night, the day they were born, first date, anything meaningful. You choose the place and date, and the map gets printed with all visible stars and constellations labelled. Framed, it makes stunning wall art. It's personal and beautiful. Two things that are hard to beat in a gift.

15. Astronomy Binoculars - £30-£50

Binoculars don't get enough credit for stargazing. A decent pair of 10x50 astronomy binoculars costs around £35-£50 and shows way more than you'd expect. Star clusters, the Andromeda galaxy, Jupiter's moons, and the Moon in gorgeous detail. They're easier to use than a telescope, portable, and work for birdwatching too. Dual-purpose gift.

16. NASA Hoodie - £30-£45

The NASA logo hoodie is basically a modern classic. Comfortable, good-looking, and universally recognised. You can get official ones in various designs. The retro worm logo, the meatball, mission patches, even Apollo programme artwork. It's wearable space enthusiasm. Works for any age, any gender, any occasion.

17. Star Projector (Premium) - £25-£50

Step up from the basic models and you get star projectors with nebula effects, Bluetooth speakers, timers, and app control. The BlissLights Sky Lite is a popular mid-range option. It projects a drifting field of stars and a blue nebula cloud across the ceiling. Proper mood lighting. Great for bedrooms, movie nights, or just chilling after a long day.

£50 - £100

18. Moon Register Premium Package (10 Acres) - £29.99

Technically this sits under the previous bracket on price alone, but we're putting it here because of the sheer value. The Premium Package gives you 10 acres of lunar land plus the Moon Atlas software for exploring the lunar surface on your computer. At £29.99, it's honestly a steal. But it pairs beautifully with other gifts in this price range to create a £50-£100 bundle that feels premium without the premium price tag.

19. Intermediate Telescope - £60-£100

In this range, telescopes get significantly better. The Skywatcher Heritage 130P (around £85) is a tabletop Dobsonian that'll show nebulae and galaxies, not just planets. You're stepping into proper amateur astronomy territory here. Deep sky objects become visible. It's the kind of upgrade that makes someone go "oh wow" the first time they look through it.

20. Space Experience Day - £50-£80

Experience days themed around space include things like planetarium visits, guided dark-sky stargazing nights, and astronaut simulation experiences. Prices vary but you can find solid options for £50-£80 through providers like Buyagift and Red Letter Days. You're giving a memory rather than an object, and those tend to stick around longer.

21. Meteorite Fragment (Display Quality) - £50-£80

A larger or rarer meteorite specimen makes an impressive display piece. In this price range you can get a nicely cut and polished pallasite meteorite slice with olivine crystals visible. When you hold it up to light it actually glows green and gold. It's genuinely beautiful. And it's a rock from outer space. Those two things together make it a standout gift.

22. Space LEGO (Premium Sets) - £50-£100

The bigger LEGO space sets sit in this range. The NASA Apollo Lunar Lander, the International Space Station, and the newer Artemis sets are all between £50 and £90. More pieces, more detail, more impressive when finished. These are display models as much as they are building projects. They look great on a shelf next to a Moon Register certificate.

23. Astronomy Course (Online) - £50-£80

An online astronomy course from a reputable provider gives someone structured knowledge about the universe. The Royal Observatory Greenwich, Open University, and various platforms offer courses ranging from beginner stargazing to astrophysics fundamentals. It's a gift that keeps teaching long after the wrapping paper's in the bin.

24. Solar System Crystal Ball - £50-£70

A laser-engraved crystal ball with the entire solar system inside it looks absolutely stunning when lit from below. The planets are etched in 3D within the glass. Some include LED colour-changing bases. It's a desktop ornament that genuinely impresses people. Not something they'd typically buy for themselves, which is exactly what makes it a good gift.

Over £100

25. Astrophotography Camera Mount - £150-£350

A star tracker mount like the iOptron SkyGuider Pro (around £300) lets someone photograph the Milky Way, nebulae, and star fields using their existing camera. It compensates for Earth's rotation so they can take long exposures without star trails. For anyone interested in night sky photography, this is the accessory that changes everything. It turns good photos into spectacular ones.

26. Planetarium Private Session - £100-£200

Some planetariums offer private or small-group bookings. You get the entire dome to yourselves with a tailored show. It's an incredible date night or small group experience. Prices vary by venue but expect £100-£200 for a private session. Not widely advertised, so you might need to call and ask. Worth it for the exclusivity alone.

27. Space Camp (UK/US) - £150-£500

Space camp isn't just for kids anymore. Adult space camps have become increasingly popular. The UK has several options, and if you're willing to travel, Space Camp in Huntsville, Alabama is the original and best. Prices range from £150 for a day experience to £500+ for multi-day residential programmes. It's the ultimate gift for someone who's always dreamed of being an astronaut.

28. Advanced Telescope - £150-£400

For someone who's outgrown their beginner scope, an upgrade to something like the Celestron NexStar 6SE (around £350) with computerised GoTo tracking opens up thousands of celestial objects. Point it at the sky, tell it what you want to see, and it slews to the target automatically. It's serious kit that'll last years and deliver countless nights of discovery.

29. Telescope with Astrophotography Capability - £300-£500

Telescopes in this range often come with smartphone adapters or dedicated camera ports. The Vaonis Vespera is a smart telescope (around £400) that captures deep-sky objects and displays them on your phone or tablet in real time. It's the future of amateur astronomy. Set it up, open the app, and watch nebulae and galaxies appear on your screen. Mind-blowing first time you use it.

30. The Ultimate Space Bundle

Why choose one when you can have them all? Put together the ultimate space themed gift bundle: Moon Register Premium Package (£29.99), a Star Register star naming kit, Mars land from Piece of Mars, and a lordship title. Wrap them separately for maximum impact. They'll unwrap gift after gift and each one gets more ridiculous and wonderful. Lord Dean of Somewhere, owner of the Moon, Mars, and a star named after them. That's a gift haul that nobody forgets.

Wrapping Up

Thirty gifts. Four price brackets. Hopefully at least one thing on this list made you think "that's the one." Space themed gifts work because they tap into something universal. We all look up at the same sky. When you give someone a piece of it, whether that's a novelty land certificate, a named star, or a telescope to explore it all, you're giving them something that connects to wonder. And wonder never gets old.
