NASA to Reexamine Nicknames for Cosmic Objects

User avatar
Komrades: Satire or Seriuos?

Image

If satire: Further suggestions?
If seriuos: (.. same as above ..)

For starters: How about, um, Black Hole?
Otherwise: Inspiration? Here!



ACHTUNG:
Limited conversancy in Astronomy?
NO PROBLEM! Conditional entries highly welcome!
Template: If there is an object called (X), it would be now named (Y).

Supplementary aspect: What would YOU do about it, if YOU where TRRRUMP?

Arachnid Combine objects to the name "Tarantula Nebula."

So, according to NASA there are astronomical nicknames within the astronomical community that are 'harmful'.

So HARMFUL!! NASA couldn't even say one in their announcement, just a list of astronomical nicknames that MAKE SENSE to even NON astronomical telescope viewers of astronomical interest.

The horned rodent is sniffin' the idea that there is some astronomical insider trading of nicknames going on at NASA which is now operating according to Islamic teaching thanks to O.

And we're just supposed to take NASA's word on these unknown nicknames, that only make sense to 'insiders', for fear nonastronomicalsiders will find out about insensitive people at NASA, and get our feelings hurt, because ,we don't know what all these insiders know, and we have to fund these tic tock the game is locked insensitive people.

This is too much astronavelgazingonomy for the mythical mind of a horned rodent.

We think it would be appropriate to change it to WeAnus to no longer exclude The Other™.

This will also help young children in potty training or otherwise little older children, "Mommy I have to go We We!" or "Mommy I have to go WeAnus!"

No more elusive subjugation with imperialistic numbers of "#1" or "#2"!!!

It's for The Children™!

In the name of our other-speciesistically identifying Komrade|s|ttes (and Arachnid Combine included, of course), let's focus on the Celestial Constellations aspect.

Hard to believe, yet here they are (and that's the main ones only!):

Ursa (Maior and its cub, Minor), Leo, Taurus, Lupus, Canis Maior (and Canicula, its puppy), Aries, Cancer, Scorpius, Aquila, Corvus, Grus, Cygnus, Serpens, Draco, Hydra, Pegasus, Phoenix, Monoceros, Capricornus, Centaurus, even Delphinus and Pisces... (transferendum)

Not even asked if they wished to participate in that constellaboratorial Gulag!
Unspeakable astrocelestial appropriations!

(Planisphæri cœleste, Frederik de Wit, 1670)
To spike the outrage:
Zodiac stems from (lat.) zōdiacus ζῳδιακός ζῴδιον ζῷον. And ζῷον (zō(i)on) stands for... animal.

Whereas ζῳδιακός (zō(i)diakos) means "circle of animals".

"c―i―r―c―l―e .of animals"...
So, not only were comrades Animals forced into a celestial affair, no. Στοιχεῖα-obsessed Greeks forced the kollektive of Bestiae Omnis into gargantuan circles, in the stupid belief that their beloved π matters more than the glorious teachings of Vladimir Ilyich Batyushka!

The last straw:
Those Greeks, needless to say, were.. whiteys. And the Latins too!


Outrage! REVOOLOOSHUN!!!

Outrage! REVOOLOOSHUN!!!

Most scientific, GD. And there's even MORE Outrage! REVOOLOOSHUN!!!

NICKNAMIUS ALL!!! But 'these' nicknames are 'appropriate' according to NASA eggspert who WILL NOT SAY - INAPPROPRIATE Nicknames used among eggsclusive NASA insiders. NASA just says inappropriate nicknames will no longer be tolerated by NASA Scientist Committee.

What ARE these inappropriate nicknames so astropeasants will know if they are straying off comet path-by and into Outer Limits of Gulagosphere?

Best to know before a comrade gets sent there.

Right, comrades?

Insider Trading of Inappropriate Nicknames at NASA requires transferendum, No? Yes?How does a comrade know, a comrade don't know, if a comrade doesn't know, that the comrade doesn't know?. hhhhmmmm?'pelipsky

And while they are purifying the names, what of the pronouns? Have the celestial objects -- and note how this nomenclature objectifies them! -- have these celestial "objects," I say, been asked what pronouns they prefer? Oh, the terracentrism of it all!

UhGGGG!!! Comrade!

Is thy name Lucsky??? Do you hold the football? Or just pull it away when Charlie Brown tries to kick it???

WE WILL NOT TELL YOU THE PROPER NOMENCLATURE THAT SHALL BE USED TO NAME PLANETS!!! YOU MUST KNOW!!!

...... OR ELSE!!!

The test will be administered as an SAT or ACT style test to help proles enter The Re-Education System™ College or NOT!!! No IF's, Orphan Annie's, or Harry E. Butt's!!!

Gulagosphere submission of proles WILL BE DECIDED on a CASE BY CASE basis? Capiche!

What color are you comrade mystical rodent? What is shoe size? How many Heil Lenin's did you say this week? Is your nearest relative a Member of The Party™ or some Dissident Deplorable™ ????

Answer the questions!!! NOW!!!

...(*stamping chicken talon*....)

Why didn't you answer yet????

‘Upward-thrusting buildings ejaculating into the sky' – do cities have to be so sexist?


Upward thrusting NASA rockets ejaculating into the sky! That's what they do! Shame! Shame! Shame on NASA!

NASA's entire existence is one big systemic sexist discrimination. Defund NASA now!

Big Bang, yet another "nickname". Huh, make it ZipZeroZilchNaughtNadaNil. Just cancel it. Then: NO Bang NO Universe NO Milky Way NO Solar System NO Gaia NO vermin known as Menschheit NO Nicknames NO Problem. The only problem: We can't say "solved forever". Because: NO Universe NO "time" NO "forever"! Sigh, back to shovel...

RedDiaperette wrote:... Oh, the terracentrism of it all!
Devoid of terracentrism, we would just sit around ― om... om... ― supraveganically munching gnarly beetroots, and contemplating the diversified equality and inclusive justice of ze Kosmos...

But with terracentrism, we can eat from the tree of proglodytedge and tell the good of historatorically unoccidented transformaprogress from the evil of deplorably pouncing knuckledraggers.

Sunny side of terracentrism: only with terracentrism can you have the "social construct" (SoCo) thing. (OFF: whatever extraterracentric ET species there are, it's simply impossible that they ever develope a concept that murky) So, we have that concept, SoCo.

But then, the Universe is just a SoCo. Big Bang is SoCo. Milky Way, Solar System, Earth, our firmament ― all SoCo!

Hah! no firmament? Thusly: no constellations, no nicknames, no brouhaha! NASA (itself a SoCo) can comfortably lean back. No NASA, thereupon no TPC NASA-post. And btw: TPC is a pure SoCo KoKo, too. KoKo ― Kollektive Konstrukt, ja?

User avatar
KoKo? - Kollektive Konstrukt??? or a certain gorilla able to humacate what's on her mind????

Maybe both at same space/time continuum of SoCo Cosmos that may or may not exist - making learning about about a possible myth a waste of socialist distant time and space.

Like what comrade has ever actually 'seen' gravity?? It's just a construct --- not 'like' real.
Nothing to know here.

This is not a pipe.

This is not gravity.

kookoo in melodiousness? And the horned rodent got reeducated THIS morning.

No Kenny, it's not "Koo Koo Kachoo" it's "Goo Goo G'Joob" read the album jacket!

and now 'pelipsky rememories knowing that from reading album jacket.

Nay, nay, it is KooKoo as in cuckoo, which makes a melodious sound when it emerges from the kookoo klock. Or when summer is icumen in, as the old song would have it: "Loude sing cuckou."

Well, that makes a whole lot more sense than where the horned rodent's mythical mind free ranged roamed, RD.

Thinkin' 'pelipsky was the walrus...that's just cuckoo klock talk.

Then again...
Incarnadine Trapezoidagon ― clearly a Cosmic Object (who dares to deny it, eh?)1.

But now, imagine: The Group-ID Kollektive of Meeces declares being microaggressed against and triggered by (their words) "Trumpezaidogon, the Kozmik Obyekt". And they need a safe spaceglobal safe space, mind you ― protecting the said KoMees, Kolektive of Meeces, from "Jinxicarnadinecity" (meaning Incarnadiness?). Clear case of Trapezoidagonaphobia.

Now, what do you do, Komrades? That is, I mean, what do we do, we Kollektive? Our Ailurokomrades, first of all?
Given, that the climate change is real, the stacks are high, and the debate is over?
For now, it's mostly meeceful, but just wait... :

1 O yeah? What have we here, a Trapezoidagon denier? Incarnadiness sceptic much? So, tell us: Where is he, Incarnadine Trapezoidagon? NOT in Cosmos??? You tell us, what's outside, or aside, or even except Cosmos!

(You will land in Gulag, you kulak, and then you can)
meditate where you are ― Cosmos or not Cosmos)

Btw,

NASA itself reeks of blatant speciesism.
"The Eagle has landed! The Eagle has landed!"

( "Eagle"? a rachitic tin box on stilts, that's what it was )
