Stardust for Bowie
Studio Brussels is a popular public radio station in Belgium. When David Bowie died, the station knew millions of fans around the world were feeling aggrieved and wanted to create a fitting tribute. Scientists of the Belgian Royal Space Observatory helped to create a unique homage in space. 7 stars in the vicinity of Mars were identified and Studio Brussels registered a unique lightning-bolt shaped constellation in Bowie’s name. The homage in the sky was linked to an online tribute page, Stardust for Bowie, which was developed with Google Sky. The page allows fans to create personal tributes within the constellation’s borders, whether it’s naming a favorite song or leaving a short message to remember Bowie’s legacy. Together, each of those tributes combine to brighten the interior of the constellation, making it easy to pinpoint in the Google Sky galaxy.
