Planet porn: Saturn's barely-legal rings in new Cassini pix



Scott Matthews says,

Not to be outdone by those two snot-nosed rovers on Mars, the Cassini probe orbiting Saturn sends back this spectacular shot of Saturn and its rings (Color-exaggerated version: Link, Original version: Link), a mosaic composed of 165 images taken from within the darkness of Saturn's shadow.

But wait, there's more. Cassini also recently swooped down for a few more snaps of (Saturn moon) Titan's presumed lakes of liquid methane (Link).
