Christians...Join in the naming of planets....suggest Biblical names....see how long before they block you...LOL
From ASTRONOMY MAGAZINE- "Our solar system may be down one planet from the good old days, but astronomers have now found more than 860 worlds orbiting stars near us in the Milky Way Galaxy. More than 1,000 other candidates are likely planet detections that astronomers have not yet fully analyzed.
This week, Uwingu will launch a three-week contest to name a specific planet for the first time — the Earth-sized planet orbiting one of the closest stars to the Sun, Alpha Centauri B. It is asking people to nominate names for this world and to get their friends and neighbors to vote for favorite names in order to actually name this planet.
Thus far, Uwingu has contributed to astronomy outreach groups and projects like Astronomers Without Borders, the Galileo Teacher Training Program, and the Purdue Multiethnic Training Program, as well as to the Allen Telescope Array, a California radio dish instrument searching for signals from extraterrestrial life. In the future, the project may begin to collect enough funds to contribute to larger projects like ambitious, next-generation telescopes.
For now, you can nominate names for this very special planet neighboring us in the galaxy for only $4.99 per nomination. And you can vote on ranking the popularity of nominations for $0.99 per vote."

How about the Hezekiah Centauri?
Then Hezekiah the king rose early, and gathered the rulers of the city,
and went up to the house of the LORD.
2 Chronicles 29:20
