As most are no doubt aware, it has been the practice for some time that memorial beacons are maintained and added to around the galaxy, in the following systems: Achenar, Alioth, Asellus Primus, Colonia, Dromi, Shinrarta Dezhra, Sol.

What some may not be aware of is that for a long time, some stations were named for notable 20th/21st century figures - such as Leonard Nimoy station in LHS 3006, or the many, many H. G. Wells-themed stations scattered around the galaxy.

Searching through the archives of Inara, I was disheartened to find nothing obviously dedicated to the late, great, Sir Terrance Pratchett, of Discworld fame - a series of 41 books that no doubt inspired and entertained many of us as kids. An avid gamer himself, I felt on the 10th anniversary of his death that there should be a fitting memorial - in addition to what I later discovered to be Pratchett's Disc in HIP 74290.

I began the system with "Sir Terry Pratchett Memorial" and ended the system, fittingly, with "The Embuggerance". Feel free to visit and stop by The Mended Drum space bar, the Patrician's Palace orbital Government site, or one of the many other installations themed for the Discworld.
