As Firefly fans are spread hither and yon on the thread, thought I'd post this here:
Help NASA name Node 3
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.
The choices are:
Earthrise
Legacy
Venture
SERENITY
Ha. The top 5 write-in suggestions include "Endor."
Ha, that name seems the most appropriate even without the reference.

I know, right? Plus, isn't there a Sea of Serenity on the moon?
Sea of Tranquility. Hence the #1 write-in.
Wow, there are a lot of Seas!
Sea That Has Become Known
It's like its Indian name.
Earlier on the top write in name was Dunder Mifflin.
When I just voted, Serenity had 85% of the votes, aside from write-ins. And the top write-ins weren't nearly as fun as the ones mentioned here.
Whoot! Firefly!!!
