Will this asteroid constantly ask for its own series?

What's wrong? Stop begrudging him of his own asteroid.

In my opinion, everyone of that series deserves an asteroid named after them. They've done a great thing, so why shouldn't something like an asteroid be named after them to keep these persons in the minds of future generations?

Stop bothering about it only because he's gay, be more tolerant!

I have absolutely no problem him being gay, I just found twenty years of badgering for a captain Sulu series a tad annoying.

George Takei has been badgering you for 20 years for his own Trek series?

Didn't realize you had that much clout at Paramount.

Personally, I think htis news is rather cool.
