Let the cat out of the bag a few days early. Was on NPR this morning.
The astronaut didn't let the name slip. Mission Control did. The
announcement was supposed to be read down on a "private" voice loop for
later broadcast when the name became official, but a configuration error on
the ground resulted in it being read down in the clear.
