Freddy Mercury 70th b-day: Asteroid named after him by Brian May
Queen guitarist Brian May says an asteroid in Jupiter's orbit has been named after the band's late frontman Freddie Mercury on what would have been his 70th birthday.
May says the International Astronomical Union's Minor Planet Centre has designated an asteroid discovered in 1991, the year of Mercury's death, as "Asteroid 17473 Freddiemercury."
May, who has a doctorate in astrophysics from Imperial College, London, says the newly named asteroid is "just a dot of light, but it's a very special dot of light" and recognizes Mercury's musical and performing talents.
Mercury, born Sept. 5, 1946, wrote and performed hits including "Bohemian Rhapsody" and "We Are The Champions" with Queen, releasing over a dozen studio albums between 1973 and 1991.

Some time ago Fedez received his second golden Tapiro from "Striscia la Notizia" and he told Valerio Staffelli: "I'm working on a new CD but for now I won't tell you with who." Interesting, given that Fedez recently published a picture next to the Italian hip-hop "uncle" with the image of a missile shot upwards and there are also rumors that say that they would both be the next judges of Amici by Maria De Filippi.
