Creationism v. Evolution -- Leave it to the Beavers - From the article: "My favorite moment in sci vs. fi history was when the JPL launched the Cassini space probe of Saturn in 1997. Soon after, the JPL phone rang; attorneys for clothes designer Oleg Cassini were demanding to know how JPL had the effrontery to name a space probe after the man who designed ensembles for Jackie Kennedy and almost married Grace Kelly – and not even ask his permission to do so? Ahem, said the JPL; the probe is named for an 18th-century astronomer named Jean Dominique Cassini."
