The most beautiful picture of Saturn in history

There have been many beautiful images of Saturn over the years, but no images are considered as great as this picture.

These images were obtained by the help of the Cassini-Huygens spacecraft while it was in orbit around Saturn - the sixth farthest planet from the Sun and about 800 million miles from Earth.

A NASA astronomer said that this picture "is not like any other picture".

This is his explanation of why this image is not like normal images.'First, the dark side of Saturn is partially illuminated by the light reflected from its majestic halo system. Next, the halo itself is dark when it shines on Saturn, but very bright when viewed from Saturn and scattered sunlight in this exaggerated color image. Saturn's halo is so bright that new halo is discovered, although it is difficult to see them in photos'.

He also points out that, if you look closely, you can also see the Earth on the left, on the main halos.

The Cassini-Huygens spacecraft - one of the largest spacecraft - was launched in 1997. It has taken thousands of incredible photos as well as provided some remarkable scientific data.
