Actually, I'm sure Colbert topped it, but I doubt they'll actually put Colbert as the name.
So much for a poll. |

We don't typically name U.S. space station hardware after living people and this is no exception," Gerstenmaier joked. "However, NASA is naming its new space station treadmill the 'Combined Operational Load Bearing External Resistance Treadmill,' or COLBERT. We have invited Stephen to Florida for the launch of COLBERT and to Houston to try out a version of the treadmill that astronauts train on."
The treadmill is targeted to launch to the station in August. It will be installed in Tranquility after the node arrives at the station next year. A newly-created patch will depict the acronym and an illustration of the treadmill. |

I know it was up to NASA to decide the name, but Tranquility?

I think they should. What wrong with naming it after people? I also don't think a treadmill named COLBERT, makes up for them choosing Tranquility over Colbert.
I've actually lost a bit of respect for NASA. |

I know people name schools, airports, and parks after famous people, and that's okay.
I don't see why someone's name shouldn't be the name of a spaceship.
Colbert even has his own airplane AND SPIDER named after him, I don't see why he can't have a node named after him.
Then again, Virgin America=/=NASA and spiders=/=NASA |

Saw that on his show last night.
When the nasa woman said "We're going to name the node... Tranquility"
Colbert's jaw dropped and the audience boo'd lol.
But then the tredmill thing came up.

Tranquility? TRANQUILITY!? Stupid asshole space-dicks.
It's kinda cool that they named the treadmill after him but seriously, what was the point of holding this contest if they were just going to take it back and refuse to name it Colbert? ФֻФ |
