Is temperature a relevant property for a vacuum? If a thermometer is placed into an evacuated chamber, will it just stay at the same temperature as when in was inserted? (i.e. Take a thermometer from room temp, say 25C, and put in vacuum, will it stay at 25C? Take a thermometer from a freezer, say -5C, and put it in the same vacuum chamber, will it also stay at current temp,-5C?) If temperature is a relevant property in a vacuum, what is it measuring the temperature of?

Since they discovered it last year, the 10th planet has been nicknamed "Xena" (as in Xena, Warrior Princess) and it's moon "Gabrielle" (name of Xena's sidekick on the show). What do you think they should name this new planet (and it's moon if you're up to it), and why?
My personal opinoin is "Apollo", but what does everyone else think it should be? (is there a website we can suggest names to, perhaps?)
