It's like they're trying to goad us into a response.

Heard that on the news this morning. Interesting

That's really good, being able to see objects less than 16 miles across that are so far away!

I find it more interesting that they think some of the smaller moons are in unstable orbits and might collide within a few million years. That ought to produce LOTS more rings. Maybe that is what recently (in solar system time) happened around Saturn?

By the year 3000 scientists will change the name of the planet so as to get rid of that joke once and for all. The new name.....Urectum
