This project is being called Nova. If we assume that is a shortened version of supernova...
Supernovas are defined as: an astronomical event that occurs during the last stellar evolutionary stages of a massive star's life, whose dramatic and catastrophic destruction is marked by one final titanic explosion.
We could then assume DUST 514's shutdown was this catastrophic explosion.
What happens after a supernova depends on the size of the star. If the star was small then it shrinks to a tiny neutron star. If it was huge then it will likely become a black hole.
Since I can't come up with anything related to a nuetron star, I'm going with black holes instead.
EVE Singularity sounds cool, but that is the name of one of CCP's servers so I doubt it will be used.
EVE Event Horizon also sounds cool, but 'Event Horizon' is the name of a well known sci-fi/horror movie that you should see if you haven't already.
EVE Entropy doesn't have the impact I have come to expect from CCP.
I've painted myself into a corner here...
My advice to you, playa.

Details really... really p!ss me off in sci-fi lol. That, and I never could take that "Dead at 21" actor too seriously. "It's ok, baby bear! I'm coming!"
Still a damn sight better than Wing Commander. Bleh. Horrible movie. Great game though. I try to give it a pass because it's a sci-fi/horror movie and I don't see many of those. The Aliens franchise, The Thing... what else? Predator, Starship Troopers, and Pandorum are good movies but venture into the action genre too much.
But you are right. It's not hard sci-fi.
My advice to you, playa.

If you venture any more, try Moon and Ex-Machina if you haven''t seen them. I also recommend the Fountain (Hugh Jackman), though that's not for everyone =\
OK. that's enough of my topic diversion. Sorry, OP. I've seen Moon and liked it. Not horror, but still suspenseful. Never saw Ex-Machina or The Fountain. I heard The Fountain was trippy as hell.
If you haven't already you should join the DUST vets Discord: https://discord.gg/0o2qgQkvz7ZQPkiF
I will also stop distracting OP's thread.
