The main rings are extremely thin. They stretch 70,000 kilometres from their inner to outer edge, but are only about 100 metres thick. They are made of loose ice particles in all sorts of sizes.
"They go from the size of houses down to the finest ice particles, like the snow you might ski on in Utah" says Carolyn Porco, head of Cassini's imaging team and an expert on the rings.
Where did all that water come from?

The pictures of Mars do not even come close to those of Saturn! It is so far away, yet the pictures feel like they are taken right next door!
Mankind can do a lot of wonderfull things when they put their minds to it!

I am in awe when I see pictures like this.
I sway back in forth in my belief in God. One day it's not there isn't. and then another day it's "Oh, yes there is."... Pictures like this seem to stop me in my tracks, don't know why but they just do.
awesome
