NASA said it’s working on a plan after comedian Stephen Colbert of Comedy Central’s “Colbert Report” won a vote organized by the U.S. space agency to name the International Space Station’s new living quarters, Reuters reports. Rep. Chaka Fattah, D-Pa., last week urged NASA to play by the rules and use Colbert’s name, the news agency says. “We have a plan and we’re working with some folks and in a couple of weeks you’ll know what the answer is,” NASA’s associate administrator Bill Gerstenmaier tells Reuters.

I think naming the Urine Recycling module after Colbert is most appropriate. I say let the winner have his spoils…lol
