I think MSL should be given a better name! Like what it was done with the MER rovers(Spirit-Opportunity). We could propose some! I propose the names "Eureka!" and "Innovation". What about you? We could then(after some months maybe) vote for the best of them!

imagery evocative of mission objectives (Stardust, Deep Impact, Genesis, Phoenix, Dawn). Those are PI-given names, I think they can call their spacecraft almost whatever they want. There is already a space project called Darwin. On the other hand, that didn't stop Europeans to name ATV-2 Johannes Kelper and their navigation satellite system Galileo |
