I'll Bet You Didn't Know About This.

The Rotating Hexagon Cloud at the north pole of Saturn. Note that 4 Earth's could fit inside the sucker.

It's been there a long time. It was imaged by Voyager 1 and 2 more than 20 years ago.




And a brief write-up that pretty well summarizes it.


I'll bet even Al Gore couldn't explain it.

Frank has explained it though. So he tells me.

  4. Just FYI: I took the liberty of running the above Russian comment through Babelfish, and it appears to be an advertisement for a telephone sales company.

  5. CLady. Glad you liked it. My guess would be electromagnetic and/or climatic pressure cells or something of that sort.

  6. Trestin, yea, what did they spend on Cassini. 10-20 million? Chicken feed compared to giving Wall Street, local and foreign around 30 Trillion so far so they could have a do-over.
