  1. Re:Don't break the damn pattern on New Frozen World Found Beyond Pluto · · Score: 1

    Cronus is the Greek name for Saturn, so that would be redundant.

    I agree that we need to stick with the Roman names: Minerva deserves a planet as much as any of the rest.

  2. Interesting Counting on 22lb Ice Blocks From the Sky · · Score: 1

    I'm especially fascinated by this bit:

    "Three others were found later, bringing the world total over the last decade to more than 50. But Martinez- Frias said only around a fifth of the ice meteors are ever found."

    How exactly does he count the 200 or so ice meteors that no one found?
