And that ladies and gentlemen, is how Saturn looks from its (regular) moons...
Yeah, I've had the book with the Chesley Bonestell paintings in for the last 40 years or so . . .
I must confess I only started taking a closer interest in the rings and ring images following the equinox observations showing all that spectacular vertical structure. Since then I've wanted to know how those features would look edge on whilst also illuminated at low angles. I didn't catch any shots taken very close to ring plane crossings during the eqinox period, but maybe Emily or someone else with search expertise (or just a good memory) will be able to point to some such?
