I am a big fan of the minimalist black and white images that have been coming back from NASA’s Cassini Orbiter, but I think the ultraviolet-light images are pretty cool too.
Make that two fans! Awesome stuff. More views through the UV lens coming later today, coincidentally.
These are beautiful! -Savy
