Saturn,
the Ring World
Saturn becomes the true “Lord of the
Rings”. After nearly seven years in transit,
the two-story Cassini-Huygens spacecraft orbited
Saturn on July 1. Now, the portable dome theater
opens Saturn, the Ring World, featuring the
Cassini-Huygens mission. Cassini is exploring
Saturn and its moons for four years, while the
Huygens probe had landed on the surface of Titan,
Saturn’s largest moon. The Cassini Saturn
encounter began with a flyby of Saturn’s
farthest moon, Phoebe. See Saturn up-close and
all-around-you inside our dome theater.
Ring World
is narrated by Star Trek’s John
Billingsley (Dr. Phlox on Enterprise)
and was produced by NASA’s Jet Propulsion
Laboratory.
