Good news for Hydras: You're getting Mooned at Jupiter!
That's the planet, Jupiter, not the Bangkok bar but, never mind, you have your very own moon!
Jupiter's two recently discovered moons have been offically named, Hydra and Nix.
Nyx Nixed in favor of Nix: The spelling had to be changed because there's already a Nyx.
Fortunately; there is no existing, Hydra, or the other moon might have been named Hiedi.
(I hope you didn't think I was going to say, Hydrangea.)

These are two moons of Pluto, not Jupiter, the other being Charon.
In Greek mythology, Pluto ruled the underworld and Nyx was the goddess of night and the mother of Charon, the boatman who takes souls across the River Styx and into Pluto's grasp. Hydra was the mythological nine-headed serpent that guarded the underworld - and the name of several posters on this board.
Maybe NASA, having discovered two new rings around Uranus, will also deal with the problem of Klingons, too.
Isn't The Wilted Pansy the Official Flower of Jomtien?
