Sir Isaac Newton would be amazed by this awesome video, showing Saturn moons causing waves as they orbit near its F Ring. These images can only be taken every 15 years, during Saturn's equinox. Thankfully, Cassini is there now. In the video you can see Prometheus (in the inner side) and Pandora (on the outer side), disturbi (Read More)
