To be fair... no one does... except a select few si-fi geeks ;-) :-D


too bad most of those SF geeks don't know what Tannhäuser is either.

@Karlos

Yes, botha  poet and a legend, the reference as a name is being pulled from the story of a knight who spends a year underground worshipping venus.

Makes a great poetical reference for a name that might be used in the future of some great location..the romantic insinuation being that this "gate" leads to the Venusberg... totally something I could see a scientist or artist referencing when naming some new place in space.  Also makes sense from a writers standpoint, what with Baty being the poet of the film after all.
