OUR RINGED PLANET--



Saturday, Fogeyisms heads out into space with some stunning pictures of the planet Saturn done by the Cassini spacecraft. Saturn is now visible to the naked eye in our just-after-dark evening sky. Look overhead and find the big dipper. Below that to the south you will see the constellation Leo the Lion with its head that looks like a backwards question mark. Saturn is a bright “star” just below that constellation. See the map and enjoy taking a peek; at both the planet and the blog, of course.
