Shank, no not odd but it wouldn't be odd if it was the same either.

I was saying that there isn't a strict protocol that forces a planet to be named after its surrounding asteroid field or belt or cluster or whatever. There's the situation I provided with Edras VI in Ghoti then there's also Sedina V in an asteroid cluster called Sedina V. This means that there could be multiple situations possible with name of a planet ergo an unlabeled planet's name cannot possibly be accurately assumed so therefore it must be named.

I will look into naming the planet Chaak :).

I hope this doesn't lead to some massive scouring of the universe for any other possible un-named astronomical bodies. I don't want to have to start an International Astronomical Union just for VO ;).

I'm sure that'll be raised when we add more Exploration constructs, heh.

Hahah, you say that after just letting someone name one?

Woo! Thanks! I'll try not to discover anymore for now xD.
