General / Off-Topic Nelson Mandela

[Variform]

I heard this morning that N. Mandela died.

A great man, for many reasons.

I would ask Frontier Developments if they would name a world after him to honor his life and achievements.

Thank you.

I do not think that is possible, because there is much to celebrate, of great men through human history

 

[Michael Brookes]

As with the previous games we will honour many suitable people within the game.

I spoke too soon

 

[Erimus Kamzel]

I see no reason why someone like Mandela can't have a star system named after him. In years to come it may happen in real life.

+1

 

[exioce]

+1 for a station around Earth or a starport in South Africa bearing his name.

I agree, not all are going to be suitable.

He was a great man, just wish more of the world leaders where like him.

That would be touching gesture. Port Nelson perhaps? That could be confused however with Admiral Nelson though.

Nelson Mandela was a great man of the 20th century, he had a hard life but he had never give up.
RIP Nelson Mandela.

Nothing particularly against Mandela, but it should be remembered that one person's hero isn't necessarily everyones.

Are we going to have a Cromwell Station? Didn't Del-boy live in Mandela Towers?

Politicking is a tricky old thing, and possibly best left out of a global video game IMHO.

 

[jedt]

a man who spent 27 years in prison and came out talking about reconciliation rather than revenge....name a bright star system for him...

 

[Darren Grey]

Much rather Mandela than all the sci-fi names people have been requesting.

Mandela would not have liked this word
