See it on NASA's siteSaturn reaches its opposition on August 27, 2023, meaning it is opposite the Sun in Earth's sky, making it appear at its brightest. This sequence of images, taken a year apart, shows the changing tilt of Saturn's ring plane as seen from Earth. The rings, not visible to the unaided eye, cycle from wide open to nearly edge-on over several years.
