How about a subscription to a non-fiction book club or an Amazon Kindle subscription where they can download ebooks on various non-fiction topics? Another idea would be to purchase a notable non-fiction book that has received great reviews like "Educated" by Tara Westover, "Sapiens" by Yuval Noah Harari or "Becoming" by Michelle Obama. You could also consider a comfortable reading chair or a book stand to hold their books while they read.
Or you can get her/him a star map with an important date you share.
