Cassini @ Home


Just something I've thrown together out of the continued boredom of this interminable cloud and ever brightening moon. After seeing the following image, which frankly blew my mind (if only I could et such resolution from here!), I looked for Cassini raw data, and found a haul of treats, some of which I threw together to make this video of Enceladus' jets.
