Meteors and Saturn's Rings

Hey Space Placers!

    Here's something we have NEVER seen before - meteors in Saturn's rings!!!!

    For the first time ever NASA's Cassini spacecraft at Saturn has captured meteors in Saturn's rings - just unreal.
Meteors Meet Saturn's Rings

   Saturn now joins Earth, the Moon and Jupiter as places where impact events have been observed. Read More About It: http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/news.php?release=2013-147

   Speaking of the ringed planet, I'll have a blog ALERT on the 28th about Saturn's closest approach to Earth for the year.

   Have a GOOD weekend everyone.
