Cassini Captures Breathtaking Picture Of Enceladus and Tethys Above Saturn

Is There Anything More Perfect Than This Picture?

Cassini has captured this absolutely perfect picture of Saturn's moons Enceladus and Tethys almost flawlessly lined up above Saturn.

As the hype for Star Wars: The Force Awakens reaches fever pitch it can sometimes be easy to forget that we are, right now, living in our own space odyssey.

Thankfully what this image does is convey that what you're looking at isn't just some piece of CGI'd artwork drawn up for people to set as phone wallpaper.

This is a real picture, taken above an orbiting world that's within our own solar system, which when you think about it is actually pretty incredible.

Cassini has been a pretty amazing source of imagery over the years, passing by each of Saturn's moons as it captures both the gas giant, its rings and even the Earth looking back.
