Saturn, its Rings and Moons - Professor Carolin Crawford
Ανέβηκε στις 14 Νοε 2011
Saturn
is the most beautiful planet in our Solar System. Famous for its bright
yet ethereal rings, the gas giant has over sixty natural satellites in
orbit around it -- and one artificial satellite: NASA's Cassini
spacecraft, which provides many of the results and images that will be
showcased in this talk. We shall explore the weather observed in the
atmosphere of Saturn, the curious structures that develop within the
rings, and its wide variety of moons -- from smog-shrouded Titan,
two-sided Iapetus, to busy Prometheus, and the icy plumes erupting from
frozen Enceladus.
The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website:

continues today with all of our five or so public lectures a week being
made available for free download from our website.
