philnicPluto - name a feature after Ray!
There's a public campaign for naming (the as yet unseen, but soon to become revealed by a passing probe) the surface features of Pluto and Charon.
Ray's name is one of many on the kind of shortlist, which you can view here:
http://www.ourpluto.org/vote/guideVoting ends at midnight tonight.
Of course, Pluto was discovered as a planet when Ray was a child. It was later demoted to "dwarf planet" or somesuch.
