Spacesim has many objects that are given names for sentimentality and notability. Names are practical for computers, but for other objects they are simply a matter of fun.

Examples

Bob and Doug (Deceased) A set of small speakers used at worksessions to play music. Currently non-functional
Betty and Veronica A set of 4-foot speakers formerly used to amplify CAPCOM transmissions, named after the comics characters
Planck A plank of 2x4 wood, affectionately known as "Planck the Plank"
Doyle A large television in Mission Control used to monitor a Control Room camera. During Mission Genesis 2009, Doyle was used to watch the horror movie Cloverfield
Pumpkin A small television in the Control Room used to view Mission Control. It is named Pumpkin because it only displays in orange-tinged grayscale. It formerly lived in the Simulator Loft and in the Hawking II's Mission Control.
MC Hammer A hammer that resides in Mission Control eponymous to Brian Foo's nickname, itself a joke referencing rapper MC Hammer
