This clean-filter narrow-field images ofDione was taken on Sep,16.
http://saturn.jpl.nasa.gov/multimedia/imag...4/N00039619.jpg There is a strange feature on the left of the moon.. This meteor-like shape is not visible in other images of the same sequence, so it is almost surely a cosmic ray signature, but a very strange one (never seen something like this, before!). Any alternate explanation? PS: It remind me an image from 2001: a Space Odissey (from the final, unforgottable Bowman's trip through the universe)... do someone else had the same flashback? -------------------- I always think before posting! - Marco -

It's an 'article' from the Weekly World News, who also brought us Bat Boy, and Bat Girl, and endless sightings of Bigfoot and Elvis controlling the weather, etc. etc. etc.
It's more of an editorial than anything, except that it purports to be factual, sort of, because it uses certain words, uhh, they never did claim it was true, did they... |

I also like the idea that we could be evacuated and off to Andromeda before 2014 it seems to be taking forever to get back to the moon. Roy F |

Hmmm... at last we have proof that an alien vessel is in orbit around Saturn?
http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/jpegMod/PIA07592_modest.jpg -------------------- "After having some business dealings with men, I am occasionally chagrined,
and feel as if I had done some wrong, and it is hard to forget the ugly circumstance. I see that such intercourse long continued would make one thoroughly prosaic, hard, and coarse. But the longest intercourse with Nature, though in her rudest moods, does not thus harden and make coarse. A hard, sensible man whom we liken to a rock is indeed much harder than a rock. From hard, coarse, insensible men with whom I have no sympathy, I go to commune with the rocks, whose hearts are comparatively soft." - Henry David Thoreau, November 15, 1853 |
