As any space-probe-savvy reader knows, Cassini-Huygens entered Saturn orbit on June 30. Well, it’s been getting no rest since, sending back some very impressive and picturesque photos of Saturn’s surface, rings and satellites.
From the Saturn mission’s web site, there are some recent images — quite interesting and pretty ones — of Saturn and environs. Did you know Mimas looks suspiciously like a certain orbital space station everyone but Julien is familiar with?
Probably the best way to keep up with the goings-on of Cassini and his little buddy is to visit the JPL site from time to time, but an easier (and fun) way is to frequent Cassini’s LJ blog. Friend him (assuming you’ve got a Livejournal account - bleccch) and you’ll be kept up-to date. More or less.
