David Bowie now has his place up in the heavens. Belgian astronomers have given the "Starman" his own constellation, consisting of seven stars that form the shape of a lightning bolt.

According to The Guardian, the Belgian astronomers announced the registration of Bowie's constellation. The constellation, located near the vicinity of Mars, is considered to be a fitting tribute to the late artist who passed away after battling cancer.

During the duration of his career, David Bowie would draw inspiration from the universe. The legendary artist found initial success with his hit single "Space Oddity," from which he would later channel his persona, Ziggy Stardust. The extraterrestrial rockstar's hits include the aforementioned "Starman" and "Life on Mars."

The legendary rocker appeared on the cover of the Aladdin Sane 1973 album, with the iconic red and blue lightning bolt painted on one side of his face.

According to the report, the Belgian radio station Studio Brussel and the MIRA public observatory joined efforts to register Bowie's constellation. Finding the right place in the night sky proved to be a challenge.

Philippe Mollet of the MIRA Observatory admitted that finding the "appropriate stars" was not an easy task.

He added that Studio Brussels tasked them with givin Bowie a "unique place in the sky." Eventually, they chose seven stars referring to the singer's past albums -- Sigma Librae, Spica, Alpha Virginis, Zeta Centauri, SAA 204 132, and the Beta Sigma Octantis Trianguli Australis.

The report says that Bowie's constellation is part of the "Stardust for Bowie" project, where fans can use the application, Google Sky, to view a virtual version of the constellation. Fans can also leave their own tributes to the rocker by posting their messages within the constellation's border. 

David Bowie's son has also broken his week-long silence following his father's death to share an open letter to the music icon, penned by a famous palliative care doctor.

In a report with News.com.au, the letter showed Dr. Mark Taubert's poignant letter to the rocker, thanking him for the album "Blackstar," and its references to the singer's death at home.

Bowie topped the charts with his post-humous "Blackstar" album, making it his first number one album. The album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. 

David Bowie's death last week has sparked a phenomenal outpouring of grief from fans worldwide. The singer passed away on Jan. 10, aged 69.
