It's one of the first websites I visit each day. :hi:

Too bad we can't see Titan's shadow on Saturn. That would've been pretty sweet.

2. What a beautiful picture!

Thanks for posting. I've always been especially fascinated by Saturn and Titan in particular...

3. Beautiful Image!

I never paid enough attention to realize Saturn is multi colored. Pink, green, blue, etc and many shades of tan.
