NASA’s Cassini mission officially ended way back in 2017. It was then that the spacecraft plunged into Saturn, destroying itself in a blaze of glory, but the incredible wealth of data it sent back during its life is still being studied and, as a new paper published in Science reveals, it still has some secrets to share.
In a new blog post, NASA highlights some of the interesting new findings that scientists are discovering in Cassini’s data. Specifically, the spacecraft’s observations are yielding new detail on the structure of Saturn’s iconic rings, as well as the dramatic differences from one ring to the next.
