awestruck Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Although they remain unchanged by the names we give them. Without proof of life beyond us in the universe, There is a very small chance we are their only witness. Quite a large responsibility. One that should invoke a large respect.

JamesF Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Give it twenty years and lots of people won't remember who it is named after. Fifty and almost no-one will.James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jabeoo1 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 The wit in this thread made me giggle. Well done everyone for deservedly satirising it so well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Physopto Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 It doesn't matter what we name anything here on our little and very insignificant Earth. A being somewhere else in another part of the Universe probably already has a different and just as stupid a name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a hockey guy. Only one I know who played for the Galaxy was the supposedly handsome guy who bends the ball a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight of Clear Skies Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 I'm not too concerned, with an estimated 200 billion or so galaxies we could name one after every professional footballer and not make a noticeable dent in their numbers.
