New images of Saturn


The Casinni spacecraft has sent back awesome and never-before-seen angles of Saturn from above and below its rings.

According to an AP story, Cassini snapped the images during the past two months when its orbit was highly inclined.

The $3.3 billion Cassini mission, funded by NASA and the European and Italian space agencies, was launched in 1997. It is managed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena.
