It's massive and it's somewhere up there in the Ophicius constellation

Outer Space - (Humunguous Ass Mess): NASA has proposed naming its latest scientific phenomenon discovery 'Mrs O' after First Lady-Elect Mrs Obama.

Hubble Telescope's ground-based Hawaii HQ staff detected the Schwarzschild-type black hole (that famously commemorates California's Governor) last month in the Ophicius constellation close to Scorpio.

The star system is named from the Greek word meaning
'snake-holder' or pythoness, the high priestess of the temples of the Mediterranean Serpentarius cult of the snake.

"Black holes are the very stuff of the Big Bang," NASA's Prof V Smart of the Jet Convulsion Laboratory said today, "and are also notoriously difficult to escape from.

"We think naming this latest find after Mrs Obama will be a lot more popular than calling it the Sarah Palin."

Stephen Hawking is certifiable.
