X for Xena
They're naming a newly-discovered planet / asteroid (the astronomical geeks are still debating what it really is) 'Xena'.Dr Brown and his team have christened it Xena, after the warrior princess in the old television series, "... because we always wanted to name something Xena". But the formal decision on a name will be made by the International Astronomical Union. -- The New Zealand Herald
Er...ok.
Well, it's either Planet Xena or Planet 2003UB313.
Does this mean Planet Xena's satellite is gonna be called 'Gabrielle'?
Aww...brings tears to your eyes, doesn't it?
Wheee.
