With luck, there should be a naming contest or we'll have a full decade of puns to look forward too.
Or we can just avoid making clever acronyms (like MESSENGER) in the first place and give the mission a normal name from the start, like New Horizons. Alan Stern put it best way back when: http://pluto.jhuapl.edu/overview/piPerspec...ctive_05_2005_1 |
