NASA is running a poll for the name for the International Space Station's newest habitat node... and "Serenity", the name of the spaceship in Joss Whedon's short-lived but cult status SF show is leading among the five nominees! Voting will be open until March 20th, 2009. NASA will announce the winning name in April 2009. International Space Station’s Node 3 is a connecting module and its cupola for the station. NASA wants the name to reflect the spirit of exploration and cooperation embodied by the space station, and follow in the tradition set by Node 1- Unity- and Node 2- Harmony. NASA and its station partners traditionally have named each habitable part of the station, including its three laboratories (the U.S lab- Destiny, the European lab- Columbus, and the Japanese lab- Kibo or Hope), two airlocks (Quest and Pirs or Pier), and two Russian-built modules (Zvezda or Star, and Zarya or Dawn). • More info: www.nasa.gov/externalflash/name_ISS/index.html Add new comment Email This Print This
