Lister (city)

From Halopedia, the Halo wiki

Lister[1] was a United Nations Space Command city in the country of Aigburth on the moon of Ganymede.

The EVA Armor was tested in Lister.

Lister may be a reference to British sci-fi comedy Red Dwarf in which a Human named David Lister comes from Aigburth, which is a real place in part of Liverpool. Additionally, one of David's adventures aboard Red Dwarf takes him to a colony on the moon of Ganymede.

The city may be named for British surgeon Joesph Lister, the first advocate of sterile surgical enviornmetns.
