Speaking of Cassini


After mentioning the Cassini probe in my little rant yesterday, I thought it was right to make note of the amazing photos of Saturn and it's moons (and rings!) that we're getting back. I particularly liked this one, showing the very clear ice-filled canyonlike features on Dione, Saturn's 12th satellite. There is an archive of shots like this one, complete mission profile documentation, and a host of other great information available at the Cassini-Huygens page.
