Photos from Saturn

Friday July 11, 2008

Get to know my favorite planet and its moons in this stunning video including narration from one of the scientists on the imaging team from the Cassini spacecraft. At around 4:50 you'll see the Sun eclipsing Saturn which is an absolutely incredible sight.

Great find, Lynn! Saturn is an incredibly beautiful planet. I love the image showing Saturn eclipsing the Sun with the rings back-lit. Thanks for sharing this with us.

Thanks Lynn. Very nice of you to post this slide show. Good timing as Saturn and Mars dance together.

Kudos to the many dedicated people who made the necessary sense out of the science and universal laws to return such grand imagery and information.

The image of the waves in the ring system is one of my favorites. Reminds me of one of nature's great paradoxes found in the barrier islands. The barrier islands create stability through instability (shifting back and forth). Stop or alter the natural tides and the islands fall apart.

Seems Saturn's ring system remains stable through shifting gravitational waves. Could "predictable" Saturn be showing us a paradoxical riddle about how to create a sense of security in this Universe

Glad you all are enjoying it!

Joseph, great point about Saturn - that is exactly what Saturn teaches. How to set down roots of stability and grounding in the midst of an unpredictable universe

Thanks for posting this Lynn. The part I found most awesome was how we could see the tiny dot of Earth from the Cassini space ship out there next to Saturn. Mind blowing.

I love it when you include the astronomy stuff with astrology. Have you noticed that it is the astronomers who are the most derisive of astrologers? Astrologers were the first astronomers. Oh well

It's hard to be afraid of the Taskmaster when you see the etheric rings glowing from the Sun. Awesome. I love science when it's beautiful
