Saturn’s rings are one of the most beautiful sights in the solar system. They can be seen clearly even with a small backyard telescope. Astronomers have known about these rings for over 400 years, yet they still present many questions. In 2004 the Cassini orbiter and Huygens probe reached Saturn. During this show we will explore the mysterious features seen by these spacecraft.
