Views from Cassini at Saturn

COSMIC MESSAGE
The Cassini orbiter sent back incredible views of Saturn for over a decade. This video shows some of its early observations. You can see Saturn's rings nearly edge-on, appearing as a thin line. The F-ring, constrained by two shepherd moons, appears unusually wavy. Cassini also captured many of Saturn's moons shooting past.
