The US space agency has opened public voting to decide the name of its 2020 Mars mission bot, with nine candidates to choose between. This is your opportunity to save Fantasia, and if you got that reference, you’re probably old. Like me. It’s okay, we can start a club.
In the meantime, though, NASA has nominated these potential names for our consideration, which for whatever reason doesn’t include xTerminat0rNoScope69x so that’s a big miss for humanity:
- Courage
- Promise
- Clarity
- Fortitude
- Tenacity
- Vision
- Endurance
- Perseverance
- Ingenuity
At the NAG office, our votes go to Tenacity (Michael), Vision (Lauren), and xTerminat0rNoScope69x (me, because I’m an anarchist like that).
