Editorial policy

Stellar Connection aims to make skywatching information clear, careful and useful to general readers. We separate explanation from interpretation and make uncertainty visible when a subject calls for it.

Accuracy and clarity

We check factual claims against relevant, reputable material before publication and prefer explanations that readers can follow without relying on unexplained jargon. When a subject is uncertain or an account differs by tradition, we say so rather than presenting one version as universal. Articles are reviewed for clarity and consistency; the publication does not claim to provide professional scientific advice.

Independence and partnerships

Editorial decisions are made for readers, not as a condition of a commercial relationship. Any paid or partner material is clearly labelled where it appears, so readers can distinguish it from independent editorial coverage. We do not present a placement as an endorsement or hide the nature of a collaboration.

Corrections and illustrations

If a published item contains an error, we assess the report and correct the text when warranted, making a clarification where the change matters to readers. Some illustrations may be generated with AI. Where an illustration could be mistaken for a documentary image, its illustrative nature is identified.
