You know... someday... when historians dig these spacecraft up in the far future, how many stupid joke names they'll have to go through when they're studying the things. I wonder if anyone eyeball checks the names before they get to the spacecrafts ?

Well, thanks to Carl Sagan's bright idea, we as a species have already sent naked pictures of ourselves out of the solar system on a gold-plated plaque aboard the Pioneer space probes. I have no doubt that someday, somewhere out there in the universe aliens will be getting giggles at our high-minded expense.

The Pioneer plaque has one too many planets.
That's gonna confuse them...errr...if the rest doesn't.
