NASA's Cassini spacecraft is continuing to explore the planet Saturn, its rings, and its moons. Dr. Showalter, a key member of the Cassini science team, shares some of the marvelous results and recent discoveries from the mission. His special focus is Saturn's complex and beautiful ring system (which shows a variety of surprising phenomena, including "jets", "propellers", "wisps", "spokes", and "braids") and the remarkable interactions between Saturn's rings and moons.
