Traditionally, when you seize a pirate ship, you get to rename it. Any suggestions what Liberty Belle might rename the Space Shark? The Shark's history - it was a prototype X20 Dyna Soar, stolen by pirates during a radio-controlled test flight when the radio controls were overridden. It is suspected that the pirates are really operatives for another nation, likely one with a communist government which is at least involved in the Cold War on the 'other side', but no one has offered proof and the pirates haven't confessed yet, at least as far as we know. The prototype underwent some rework and was then launched into orbit, commanded and piloted by Captain Sable with a crew of 3, with a mission to steal the Ionic Thrusters being built on Skylab, using two of them to turn the space plane from a glider into the most powerful airplane on Earth, and converting another into an Ion Torpedo cannon.
So, after Belle successfully commandeers the Space Shark, she has the privilege of renaming it if she wants. What do you guys think?

The Orka (less sinister than shark, but still a king of the deep)

Sharks are smart enough to stay away from an Orca (unless they outnumber it mightily).
