Did you know you can name a star and an exoplanet?
The NomeieExoMundos campaign, by the International Astronomical Union, gave Brazil the mission to choose a name for the star HD 23079 and an exoplanet that orbits it. Both are more than 100 light years away.
The initiative marks the centenary celebrations of the International Astronomical Union.
And the deadline for registration is running out. It ends this Monday, November 4th. Vote for the site http://bit.do/hd23079.
A Brazilian commission selected 14 pairs of very popular names in our culture. And now it's your turn to baptize these heavenly bodies.
Among the options are, for example, Arara and Sabiá; Caipora and Curupira; Capitu and Bentinho; Dandara and Zombie; Iara and Saci.
[…]
What is very interesting about NomeieExoMundos is that all the names chosen are related to our popular culture.
Well, soon, soon, we will have a Brazilian cultural representation shining in the universe.
