Hi Julie,
It was so much fun and took so much time! I read this article that NASA is worried about sending bacteria into space with each space shuttle or telescope, and I started thinking about what if bacteria from space ended up here. So once I figured out that the bacteria came from space (which everything here is from space), then I just started googling constellations, galaxies, planet names, moon names, etc. and came up with Scorpius. It just all came together (after a week of research). Then I ran it by my editor, and she liked it, so we were at go. :)
