At the very South Pole of Saturn lies a huge vortex that is a hurricane-like storm showing no sign of dissipating. The robotic Cassini spacecraft took the above image in January from about one million kilometers out, resolving details about 50 kilometers across.

Don't you just stand in awe of God's creation!! When I see photos like this, I very much feel like the NASA astronauts did when they first orbited the moon. Especially Frank Borman.
