Headed to the moon later in the 2020s, what name was chosen by public vote for the Australian Space Agency's lunar rover?

The Agency has revealed other popular names which weren't chosen for the shortlist, including Matilda, Skippy, Bluey, Walkabout, Wombat and Rover McRoverface.

Entrants also called on Aussie slang for suggestions such as Fair Dinkum, Bonza, She'll Be Right, Dropbear, Mate, Strewth and PavRover.

Some notable Australians were also honoured through names such as Burt 'Moonface' Newton, Rove-r McManus, Steve Irwin, Sam Kerr, Blinky Bill, and Barassi - the first ruck-rover in the AFL.
