I hope to have a black hole named for me someday

This is just a bit of random cool: scifi icon George Takei [Star Trek's Hikaru Sulu, and Hiro's father on Heroes] has had an asteroid named for him. Asteroid 1994 GT9, located between Mars & Jupiter, was renamed 7303 Takei, in honour of the actor's activities with the Japanese American Citizens League and the Human Rights Campaign, and his work in scifi. That's just neat.
