As one “in the know,” and a physics teacher, I can appreciate the Paul Dirac
trivia. Good to see some science/physics types out there. Of course, most
of us on .space probably wouldn’t be into space without being science/physics
types. Thanks Lenny!

Originally, the shuttle was named after a certain Science Fiction author who
shall now remain nameless. But when lenny told me about Paul Dirac and his
accomplishments, it just seemed suitable to name the shuttle after the man who
first theorized antimatter, since the Tribunal herself does have an antimatter
reactor.
A little education can pop up in the most unusual places, can’t it.
