NASA Contest To Name ISS Module 197

Solarch writes "NASA is holding a contest to name ISS Node 3. Being a Browncoat myself, I should hope that the choice of names would be obvious. As of the 7:30 PM EST on 2/25, the name Serenity has over 80% of the vote. From the site: 'Node 3 will connect to the port side of the Unity Node and will provide room for many of the station's life support systems, in the form of eight refrigerator-sized racks. After Node 3 is installed, the station's crew will transfer over many of the Environmental Control and Life Support Systems (ECLSS) currently stored in various places around the station.'"

I have a secure, high-tech job of many years like many of the people around here. My family is doing well. We live in a very rural area, and most of our friends are rather poor. Most of our friends are suffering badly. There have been evictions, foreclosures, hunger, untreated medical problems, broken transportation, etc etc. It's getting worse fast. Economic problems always hit the weakest among us first. So often, those people are invisible to most of us. They are there, and they are suffering.
