Outer Space Oddities - Bizzare Eye Upstages Rings on Saturn (VIDEO)
Bizzare Eye Upstages Rings on Saturn
4,125 Views - Click for Larger Image

Scientists have been getting strange photos of Saturn from the Cassini Spacecraft. The photos show a hexagon in the atmosphere at Saturn’s North Pole, which hasn’t changed much since Voyager I spotted it 26 years ago, and an eye, resembling a hurricane, at its south pole.

Atmospheric experts at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, CA, are baffled and will continue to study Saturn. Updated information will be forthcoming.

The hexagon appears to have remained fixed with Saturn's rotation rate and axis since first glimpsed by Voyager 26 years ago. The actual rotation rate of Saturn is still uncertain, which means nobody knows exactly how long the planet's day is. At Saturn's South Pole, the Cassini spacecraft recently spotted a freaky human eye-like feature that resembles a hurricane. (news.aol)
