Cassini and IBEX Set to Rewrite the Textbooks on the Solar System
Science's understanding of the physics of our own solar system is due for an overhaul. Recent papers from the IBEX and Cassini teams are set to overturn existing models. Those models failed to predict significant... Surprise! Saturn has a Small Moon Hidden in Its Ring
International scientists have found a tiny new moon hidden in one of Saturn's outer rings. It was first captured by cameras on board the Cassini spacecraft last August, and has since been seen on multiple... NASA spies liquid in Titanic lake
"NASA scientists have announced that at least one of the giant lakes previously spied on Saturn's moon Titan contains liquid hydrocarbons - making it the "only body our solar system beyond Earth known to have...NASA confirms lakes on Titan.
The Cassini spacecraft has been orbiting Saturn since June 2004, sending back images and date of Saturn's ring system and of its moons. On a 2007 fly-by of the moon Titan, Cassini caught a glimpse of a lake,... Has Electrodynamics Solved the Mystery of Saturn's Dual Hotspots?
It is generally believed that falsifiability and predictive ability are two cornerstones of science. As a corollary, the critical experiment (experimentum crucis) is a widely accepted method of determining which... Spacecraft Observes Powerful Electrical Storm on Saturn
"The mission of Cassini spacecraft continues as it monitors the powerful electrical storm on Saturn, where the lightning is 10,000 times more powerful than the lightning on Earth." Cassini Spacecraft Finds Ocean May Exist Beneath Titan's Crust
Below is a news release from JPL/NASA"PASADENA, Calif. - NASA's Cassini spacecraft has discovered evidence that points to the existence of an underground ocean of water and ammonia on Saturn's moon Titan. The... Titan's Oil Reserves: Drilling in Space
New oil reserves have been discovered, though accessibility will be an issue..."Saturn’s orange moon Titan has hundreds of times more liquid hydrocarbons than all the known oil and natural gas reserves on Earth,...

Cassini probe may fly through Saturn moon's steamy plume
"In a daring act of space-obatics, the Cassini probe is to buzz one of Saturn's stranger moons. If NASA opts for the most precarious of the trajectories under consideration, Cassini will approach within just 30...Study: Saturn's rings are dense clumps
"Measurements taken from the joint NASA, Italian and European Space Agency Cassini spacecraft show that the particles in Saturn's B ring are constantly colliding, which surprised scientists."Saturn Moon Has Lakes, "Water" Cycle Like Earth's, Scientists Say
"Saturn's giant moon has lakes and a "water" cycle remarkably similar to Earth's, new evidence suggests. But Titan's lakes aren't made of water. Instead, they probably consist of liquid methane, which plays the role of water in Titan's superchilled climate, the...Earth from 930 million miles away
It may look like a speck of dust on the camera lens but the tiny, pale blue dot in this photo is Earth, the farthest away it has ever been seen.Our Electric Universe
"One of the heretical theories that Professor Velikovsky proposed was that the main force in the universe was not gravity but electromagnatism. It turns out that his prediciton was borne out by discoveries of...New Scientist [science news]
Specialized news focused on scientific topics.Exobiology: Slushy volcanoes might support life on Titan
Dozens of structures on Saturn's moon Titan that appear to be collapsed slush volcanoes have been revealed by NASA's Cassini spacecraft. The heat and chemicals associated with these possible volcanoes could...
