Saturn's Hexagon Comes to Light

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

This is the North Pole of Saturn, surrounded by an unusual hexagonal cloud system. Discovered by Voyager in the 1980s, its origin and persistence are a mystery. Cassini captured its infrared glow, and by 2009, the hexagon was fully illuminated by the Sun.
