NASA Wants Us To Name A New Space Object

What Could Possibly Go Wrong?

Cast your mind back to simpler times - it was April 2016 and all Britain had to worry about was the fact we had just named a polar research vessel Boaty McBoatface.

The Arctic explorer, worth a huge £200,000,000, was almost given the charming moniker after the naming process was left in the hands of the UK public.

Now, less than twelve months later, it seems that scientists have forgotten about said incident, as NASA are asking people to name a new space object.
