Why are scientists absolutely terrible at naming planets?
There are approximately two metric shit tons of planets. I assume scientists have better things to do with their time than to sit around and think of names to give to every single one of those.
They do have rules, they’re not completely pulling these names out of their arses
It’s like in No Man’s Sky where you start out giving thoughtful names to every planet you come across, but after about twenty systems you’re running into similar world types and color schemes that evoke the same names you’ve already used, so you just stop giving a shit and stick with the names the planets are generated with.
naw. they just stopped naming the children after the first couple rounds of olympians.
why name them when there’s a few hundred a month? breed like rabbits, Olympians. probably out of boredom.
I know that Olympians fuck like rabbits, but they only meet up once every four years. Can’t be that massive of a population increase.
