Well, according to my post, it seems I was speaking of "space eggs". Now that I have opened the window and let all this darn smoke blow out, I don't understand the space egg thing, either.
Say, what if there were more pothead astronomers? Do you think we would have more interesting space theories?
Who keeps picking the stupid names for these things? At least it's better than Quaoar.
It's because you have to be politically correct now and draw names from multiple ethnic groups instead of relying on the established, sensiible practice of naming planets after Roman deities.
Actually, I thought naming a ball of crud that's -400F after the Inuit goddess that created the sea (dark) creatures of the Arctic (cold), rather freaking appropriate.

The name of the tenth planet is Rupert.
This is well established.
