This poem deserves full 10 point but this is so sad that few have cut down giving lower marks perhaps with bad intention to reduce your future rank from top 500 poets. This poem has got 3 lower votes in rating. I am giving 100 marks to this instead of rating. I declare this poem as a noteworthy poem.

Physicist Wubbo Ockels as a professor of sustainability remains in mind of many as a Dutch Astronaut and this poem is very informative about him. You have nicely penned this tribute poem. Manned space flight activities are supported by him and developed. His notable works will remain in memory. An interesting sharing is done. A memorable poem is importantly penned.
