Apparently old news, but Saturn has a polar hexagon. What the hey? Here is video: http://www.space.com/php/video/player.php?video_id=070327Saturn_hexagon

So if I had a wrench big enough, and place big enough to steady myself...(apologies to Archimedes, I think, though it coulda been some other Ancient).

Was out looking at Saturn tonight, but didn't see it. But then I don't have a space probe.

Crazy!

Check out the aurora clip on that site while you are at it. Really cool simulations.
