  • AWESOME VIDEO! I wish Cassini had two probes! We could have sent one there too! It's really not that large, and it's very alive or Geologically Active! I almost think of it as a Giant Comet, the orbits Saturn, since it leaves a ring of particles around the planet. I wish NASA would send a mission there! It would be quite a challenge, and of course cost A LOT, but our technology is growing. The Moons that have my attention are Europa (Jovian), Enceladus, Titan (Saturnian), and Triton (Neptunian).

  • Just think..this tiny orb, no bigger across than the distance between Boston and Washington, DC, might harbor life. An inauspicious target for astrobiologists, but who knows. We would almost certainly have an easier time of getting to it's body of water than trying to penetrate Europa's miles thick shell.
