Out beyond Pluto in the Kuiper Belt, in the doldrums of the solar system, the forces of gravity were powered by a tepid gruel of space dust so thin that when this material accreted into larger bodies the collisions were so “low energy” that you end up with a dumbell formed by two nearby planetoids colliding in super slow motion. In recognition of its defining characteristic I think it should be renamed Jeb!
Actually, that’s funny!
I am so looking forward the astronomical body that we can name Shift! I’m thinking that a black hole would be way too significant and his name will end up on a white dwarf.
Thanks. Maybe they can name a restroom for him. Not a good one but a NYC subway toilet.
Ha! Great post, photog. The planetoids even look like a sullen, downward face saying, “Please clap.”
I couldn’t resist. The GOPe has earned my eternal scorn.
