Io9 –

NASA is running a contest to name the new “Node 3” of the International Space Station, and Serenity is in the lead! Node 3 will allow several more people to live full-time in space.

Apparently it will also have a spiffy new toilet.

Help make our favorite Firefly ship part of real-life space exploration history. Though right now Serenity has a healthy lead, Stephen Colbert is trying to make “Colbert” a write-in winner, and the Scientologists are pushing “Xenu” as a name. I think we can all agree that Serenity is the right choice for a space station designed to look out into the black and help us learn how to live out there one day.

Vote for Serenity at NASA.
