My roommate noticed something last night that we don't have yet. Take the first letter of each part, then the number, and you get "OP8" (opiate). Do we want to add that fun fact anywere? -Jamklev 18:23, 18 September 2008 (BST)

I'd say pure coincidence if not for there being something funny in that hippy. Omicron Persei was selected for distance, not this, but this may be why they chose 8 over 6. - Quolnok 19:27, 18 September 2008 (BST)

As mentioned, Omicron Persei is an actual star 1000 lightyears away. I think 8 is purely coincidental. Given their original intention for the name. --Svip^Talk 00:53, 19 September 2008 (BST)

(NSFW) hidden meaning in the naming of Omicron Persei 8?

My friend and I were drinking one night watching futurama (might have been under other influences). And maybe it was just the alterted state we were in but after hearing the name Omicron Persei 8, we couldn't stop thinking it was a joke, something like "Overgrown pussy I ate". Or something like that. Honestly it kind of escapes me now but I wondered if anyone else ever thought there might be a joke like that hidden in the name.
