Coming in white or black versions, the Homestar Aurora is the perfect end to a long hard day. Simply choose from the [three different projections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/boom-air): Stars, Aurora or Sunset and then match it with three kinds of music provided by sleep therapist Miho Mihashi. The built-in speakers allow for adjustable audio levels and the device can fit into practically any home setting. Once the device is turned on, you will be whisked away into a sleep-filled dreamland surrounded by beauty of the 10,000 stars, the wonder of the green and blue northern lights or a starry sunset. Each projection can last for periods of up to five minutes or 30 minutes.
