There are three objects named after Prometheus outside of Earth:
A moon,
A volcano,
And an asteroid.


It is stern work, it is perilous work, to thrust your hand in the sun
And pull out a spark of immortal flame to warm the hearts of men:
But Prometheus, torn by the claws and beaks whose task is never done,
Would be tortured another eternity to go stealing fire again.
-Joyce Kilmer in "The Proud Poet" (1917)

To suffer woes which Hope thinks infinite;
To forgive wrongs darker than Death or Night;
To defy Power, which seems Omnipotent;
To love, and bear; to hope, till Hope creates
From its own wreck the thing it contemplates;
Neither to change nor falter nor repent;
This, like thy glory, Titan! is to be
Good, great and joyous, beautiful and free;
This is alone Life; Joy, Empire, and Victory!
-Percy Bysshe Shelley, in Prometheus Unbound (1818-1819); Demogorgon, in Act IV, closing lines


Thy Godlike crime was to be kind,
To render with thy precepts less
The sum of human wretchedness,
And strengthen Man with his own mind
-Lord Byron, in "Prometheus" Stanza III
