Titan = not just another Ice Moon.
Stunning doesn't do it justice.

Tiny Worlds
Behold Saturn in her absolute magnificence. There are much larger pictures available on the Internet, fans, than here. Seek them out if you need a new desktop.
Look just outside Saturn's brightest inner rings at 9:15 o'clock - there is a white dot. That white dot is Earth, and that dot contains our entire species, now, then, and seemingly forever.
We regress, while we know such wonders await us.
Blame Republicans.

A Storm on Saturn
In Saturn's North Pole sits a spinning red storm, whose outer edges form an octagon. As seen here by our friend, Cassini. A close up:
It looks like fire but it's not fire, because there's nothing to burn. Some combination of water and ammonia and other gases, each reflecting light differently, giving us color:
Amazing color. Cassini took this photo while stoned, for the record.
