Catch A Shooting Star from GemsTV -The Novelty Christmas Gift of 2009

PR Log (Press Release) – Dec 17, 2009 – You’ve heard of buying a star in the sky and a plot of land on the moon but this December, for a limited time only, GemsTV is offering you the chance to catch a falling star, and put it in your pocket! As of Saturday 19th December, GemsTV will be selling genuine shooting stars – meteorite fragments that have streaked to earth in a flash-line of luminescent light.

Certified by the British Gemmological Institute, these gifts are both romantic and extremely rare. Whilst about 700 tonnes of meteorites are estimated to fall on earth each year, nearly all land on Earth as dust, with a remaining 99% of the remainder falling in the oceans. However, now and again, meteorite fragments hit the Earth’s atmosphere, at stellar speeds of 30 to 60,000 mph, creating light as the grain vapourises in our atmosphere. This bright light is commonly known as the scarcely seen but awe-inspiring shooting star – the stuff of song and legend!

This December, sky watchers throughout the world will have their eyes peeled for the Geminid meteor shower – an annual light show of spectacular proportions, but you can have your slice of the celestial skies wrapped up to treasure forever this Christmas.

What’s more, prices aren’t astronomical! You can order your piece of interstellar space for just £45.00.

Available from www.gemstv.co.uk and at 6pm, Saturday 19th December LIVE on GemsTV1 – Sky 652 & 656, Virgin 755 & 756, Freesat 805

Great balls of fire!
