Post Asteroid Names
MAS is soon to unveil a major new work, thanks to Bill Dusch ... but in the meantime, he need 93 more asteroid names. He's opening it up to the MCS community for names. So ... get naming!

For more info, see http://bill3000.net/Soloralism/Atos_System.ssc

All the asteroids should have numbers too, like the sol system.
So I nominate a fix to the largest asteroid naming mistake of all time.

I've heard a lot of good stuff about Red Dwarf, but they don't show it here in the States. Even on BBC2. :(

I'd prefer no numbers in the name since they will be getting a cataloge number (Like how Ceres is labelled "Ceres 1")

You'll notice that there's a couple of large asteroids; some of them might be dwarf planets, like how Opisthe/Gottagobye will necessarily be a dwarf planet.
