Mußte glatt nochmal in "Mostly Harmless" ("Einmal Rupert und zurück") von Douglas Adams nachgucken.
Der Mann war ein echter Visionär!

Last week astronomers had announced that they had at last
discovered a tenth planet, out beyond the orbit of Pluto. They
had been searching for it for years, guided by certain orbital
anomalies in the outer planets, and now they'd found it and they
were all terribly pleased, and everyone was terribly happy for
them and so on. The planet was named Persephone, but rapidly
nicknamed Rupert after some astronomer's parrot - there was
some tediously heart-warming story attached to this - and that
was all very wonderful and lovely.

Ich bin sehr dafür diesem 10. Planeten im Gedenken an Douglas Adams auch den Spitznamen "Rupert" zu geben.
Glück Auf!
