Planet Pink Floyd

Apparently someone named an asteroid after our favourite "English supergroup." Its next perihelion passage (when it is closest to the sun) happens next week, on Christmas Eve. It's about 3-6 km in diameter. Unfortunately, it is quite invisible to the naked eye.

It'd be hard to miss the planet-sized ass of one D.J. Gilmour!

I think Mr. Smith is trying to stir up a brawl.
