Phaeton
3200 Phaethon is a small asteroid, or possibly a comet with some characteristics normally associated with asteroids, named after the mythological Phaėton. Fragments from this body shed when it approaches the Sun are responsible for the Geminids meteor shower occurring in mid-December.
Phaeton was also a villainous Adolf Hitler-esque character in the cartoon Exosquad. He was the leader of the Neosapians and very nearly destroyed Earth.
Phaeton is also a less successful automobile edition by VW. See VW Phaeton.
Phaeton is also an archaic term for a four-wheeled horse-drawn carriage somewhat like a buggy.
