Version française en dessous - English version below
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nederlandstalige versie:

David Bowie, de iconische artiest die hele generaties wist te bekoren met zijn muziek en zijn hele persoonlijkheid, heeft ons verlaten.

In België nam Radio1 het initiatief om Bowie's bijdrage aan ons collectief bewustzijn te vereeuwigen.

Binnen twee maanden lanceert de ESA een sonde genaamd "Exomars". Is er leven op Mars? Het is het ideale moment om de geest van Bowie de eer te geven die hij verdient. Als boodschap van eenheid kan de sonde hernoemd worden naar de "Ziggy Stardust".

Ja, Wij kunnen helden zijn - Yes, We could be heroes...Oui, Nous pouvons être des héros.

Version française:

David Bowie, l'artiste iconique qui a touché des générations avec sa musique et sa personalité, vient de nous quitter.

En Belgique, une initiative a été prise par Radio1 d'honorer sa contribution à notre conscience collective. Dans deux mois, l'organisation aérospatiale ESA lance une probe nommée "Exomars". Le moment idéal pour donner l'esprit de Bowie l'honneur qu'il mérite?

Comme message d'unité ce sera super de voir la probe rénommée "Ziggy Stardust"

Yes, We can be heroes...Oui, Nous pouvons être des héros.

English version:

David Bowie, the iconic artist touching generations with his music and entire personality, is no longer among us. In Belgium, an initiative was launched by Radio1 to honor his extraordinary contribution to our collective consciousness.

In two months time the space organisation ESA is sending a probe to Mars. The ideal moment to give Bowie's spirit the farewell he deserves?

As a message of unity, it would be nice to see the probe currently named "Exomars" renamed to "Ziggy Stardust".

We can be heroes...
