Scientific paper

For the past 6.5 years, NASA's Cassini spacecraft has been in orbit around the planet Saturn. In that time, Saturn has journeyed from the height of southern summer through early northern spring, allowing ample opportunity to observe changes in the planet's rings under a variety of lighting and viewing conditions. This presentation will highlight some of Cassini's most significant discoveries in this disk of icy rubble, emphasizing the connection between Saturn's rings and other astrophysical disk systems, such as protoplanetary disks and the giant spiral galaxies.
