# Cast a NaviStar

*From your minted station to a person you choose — again and again.*

**The Cast connects.** Once your station is minted, you can Cast from it: each **Cast** mints a **NaviStar** to one person — an on-chain, two-way, permanent link between you. Their star, kept in their Realm.

## What happens when you Cast

1. **You choose a person** — a name and an email address. That's all they need; no keys, no crypto, nothing technical on their side.
2. **A NaviStar is minted** to them, carrying your station's living page — and, if your station carries a mission, the verified facts of that real earth action travel with the star, immutable.
3. **They're told** — an email lets them know a star has been Cast to them, with a claim link. Until they claim, the star waits safely in custody (see *Claim & custody*).
4. **It lands in their Realm** — their sovereign on-chain space, born the first time someone Casts to them. Your Cast might be that first time.

## Cast again and again

A station is minted **once**; stars travel from it **as many times as the moment grows**. Every NaviStar Cast from one station joins its **constellation** — one circle, linked on-chain, scattered across many skies. A wedding station might Cast to every guest; a cleanup station to every pair of hands that showed up.

## What a Cast is — and isn't

* Each Cast is an ordinary purchase (see the *Payment & Refund Policy*); the price is shown before you confirm.
* A Cast is **permanent**. It cannot be un-Cast, and the star cannot be edited afterward — by you or by anyone.
* The star you Cast becomes **theirs** — sovereignly. Transferable by them: a plain star freely — their own affair; a star from a C//-grounded station is theirs to keep or gift — marketplace transfers are blocked at the contract layer.
* **Recipients are people.** Cast to someone because the connection is real. Recipients can decline to claim, and can ask not to receive further Casts (see the *Acceptable Use & Content Policy*).

## To respond is to Cast back

There are no likes, no comments, no counts on Earth LinC. If a star moves someone, the protocol gives them exactly one way to answer: open a station of their own, and Cast back.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://earthlinc.gitbook.io/protocol/using-earth-linc/cast-a-navistar.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
