    What does subdwarf mean? Is it an exceptionally small dwarf, or is it slightly off from meeting the requirements to be a dwarf and is actually slightly larger? :confused: As for naming, "heavy metal subdwarf" is pretty cool sounding already...

              Soon we will have Christopher Columbus or Ferdinand Magellan of space. One day we'll be able to travel in space.

                One down one to go. Dio is a brilliant name I thought about Angry Andersson from Rose Tattoo, but that's not really Heavy Metal, nor is he really a star (outside Australia).

                  If it was slightly larger, I believe the term would be 'supra-dwarf'.

                        This will be great for NASA's budget. The EPA will demand someone go there and remove all the lead before it poisons the Star Child from 2001.
