My dog Enaipo wants to hump it, and it looks a bit Russian. He named it.

We didn't know this before we had the James Webb telescope. Now we have enough resolution to read the name tags.

When I play a space game, there usually is a nametag above every planet.

If you don't see it, go to your telescope preferences, ui overlay settings, enable nametags.
