    Only thing I know is the Clooney movie and the awful book it was based on (yes, I read it!!) Nothing jumps out at me with that connection.

    I did Wiki it and there's a Solaris Knight in Power Rangers. Team, thoughts?

    The Clooney movie was on a space station orbiting the planet Polaris. Jupiter is a planet.

    I’m struggling with this one though.

    Wikipedia also tells me that Solaris is a Canadian Sci-Fi magazine.

    Solaris is an operating system by Oracle for Workstations and Servers.

    Yeah, saw it was an OS, but OS isn't the same as a server, is it?

    He gave us two guesses. Maybe, Knight and Server (note not in all caps!!)

    I’d be inclined to go Knight and Canada, the others I may be reading too much in to.

    I say Canada as it took me fewer jumps to get from Solaris to Canada. It’s easily put together on the wiki disambiguation page.

    Washers have holes in them. They’re used with pipes.

    Anything else jumping out?

    I suppose you could have a car washer too.

    Or you could put a plate in a dish washer.
