Planetary scientist Carolyn Porco says, "I'm going to take you on a journey." And does she ever. Showing breathtaking images from the Cassini voyage to Saturn, she focuses on Saturn's intriguing largest moon, Titan,with deserts, mudflats and puzzling lakes, and on frozen Enceladus, which seems to shoot jets of ice.

Here is the imagery, and below is some info for you Saturn moon watchers.
It is marvelous indeed to watch on television the rings of Saturn close; and to speculate on what we may yet find at galaxy's edge.
I can never watch this without getting tears in my eyes.
You're not the only one, Prazzie.
Thank you, Greg, and
thank you, Carolyn and team.
Anybody got a url for that last image? The one they did _not_, for some unfathomable reason, show properly? I thought I had already seen the Earth image, but not with the brilliance of what was hinted at there.
Thanks to everyone involved, especially Carolyn and team. This was such an important event for me too, so much that when we unexpectedly acquired a rescue cat on the day of the launch I just had to name him Cassini.
