Dunno if you guys heard (cuz I don't think anybody's mentioned it), but NASA's New Horizons mission has revealed a lot of new geographical features on Pluto and it's moons, and people have started naming them.

Here's a picture of Charon. I'll let it do the talking.

If these are going to be the official names then I am extremely happy with this. :3
 
An article I read said they're currently provisional names, but since Titan (one of Saturn's moons) already has features named adter Frodo and Bilbo on it, there's a good chance they'll get accepted.

We need something named for HAL. one Kubrick reference isn't enough.
 
The moon has become a little bit more nerdy. I approve of this.
