Approaching Saturn
Though the image at right looks like it might be a computer graphic somebody put together to go with a Saturn story, it's actually a photo taken by the Cassini spacecraft on Feb. 9, which it was 43.1 million miles from Saturn (to give you a sense of scale, I believe that's much closer than Mars is to the Earth now). Cassini will enter the Saturn system on May 18, passing the outer moons, and will enter orbit around the ringed planet on July 1.
