Haaaan c’est aussi le pseudo du créateur de “space exploration”, un mod du jeu Factorio. Je viens donc grâce à toi de comprendre l’origine du pseudo, qui n’est donc pas hérité d’une éventuelle période Lord of the Rings de son porteur, comme je le pensais 😊

The star was nicknamed Earendel by the discoverers, derived from the Old English name for ‘morning star’ or ‘rising light’.[1][9] Eärendil is also the name of a half-elven character in one of J. R. R. Tolkien’s books, The Silmarillion, who travelled through the sky with a radiant jewel that appeared as bright as a star. NASA astronomer Michelle Thaller confirmed that the reference to Tolkien was intentional. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/WHL0137-LS
