It's just a shame that Saturn sounds so damn creepy.

Just amazing the only picture we have of pluto is a fuzzy ball. And it takes ten years to get a new one. Why cant a telescope get a decent pic i wonder?

In my daily prayers I always pray that I will live to see humans at least orbit every major planet in the solar system.
Mars, then Jupiter (Callisto landing), then on to Saturn (Titan landing) and so forth.

A bit of threadcromancy here, but I just wanted to share this picture of Saturn taken by Cassini, which is absolutely awesome. If you look closely at the moon Enceladus, you can see the geysers spewing out water/ice from the south pole. Awesome stuff.
