Vote early, vote often. Shiny.

NASA wants your opinion in naming the International Space Station's Node 3 – a connecting module and its cupola – before the two segments travel to space and are installed on the orbiting laboratory. The name should reflect the spirit of exploration and cooperation embodied by the space station, and follow in the tradition set by Node 1- Unity- and Node 2- Harmony.

And you know which name you want to vote for...

I seriously doubt the Agency will go with any name that could be seen as an endorsement for a TV show or entertainer.

I'm glad Serenity didn't win, though. No offense Dazie, but Browncoats make me really stabby.
