The cluster of stars was named after David Bowie

Belgian astronomers have gone even further. Scientists from the MIRA Observatory, after listening to the space music of David Bowie, decided to honor his memory, just as they can: to name a cluster of stars in his honor ...

In his early years, Mr. Bowie was fond of "star" themes. He owns hit songs Starman and Life On Mars, albums The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars and Aladdin Sane. The cover of the last of them is decorated with a picture of lightning, which surprisingly resembles a new constellation.
