'Like a comet or celestial body, he represents a shining beacon for new generations' (link)

An excerpt from the article:

The Working Group on Small Bodies Nomenclature (WGDBN) of the International Astronomical Union (IAU) has ratified the assignment of the Italian champion's name to an asteroid orbiting in the main asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, adding it to the official bulletin. Discovered on March 10, 2003, at the Campo Imperatore Observatory by a Tuscan team, the asteroid will officially be named '(120097) Janniksinner'.

120097 is available on wikipedia under page titled, 'List of Minor Planets: 120001-121000', searchable by its designation, 120097.

The asteroid is also available to search on NASA's Small-Body Database Lookup page by searching 120097 in the search engine.

As July is the Disability Pride Month, I would like to bring up a name who is very synonymous to the meaning of the month, and means a lot to Tennis as a black queer disabled woman, simultaneously multiple slams champion, Kgothatso Montjane.

KGOTHATSO MONTJANE is a wheelchair tennis player from South Africa and 4-times Slams Champion in Doubles. She won Roland-Garros twice, Wimbledon and US Open once with her favourite doubles partner from Japan, Yui Kamiji. She is the first black woman to win the wheelchair doubles title at Wimbledon in 2024. Montjane identified herself as a queer person as reported from Nike's LGBTQIA+ campaign, be true: in motion.

The Wimbledon title awarded her the Sports Personality award at the Feather Awards, Africa's biggest queer awards ceremony.

Montjane is very active in building a strong tennis community in South Africa while also giving lights to the disabled community. All of her activities can be found on her Instagram, @/kgmontjane1 .
