Saturn’s dark side will haunt you. No force lightning though. Get it? Dark side?
Check out Saturn’s back-lit donkey! It is a wondrous image captured by the necro-astronomers, far beyond the pale of our Earth’s purview. I promise. I’m not making this up.
Cassini captures Saturn’s enormous space swagger.
G’damn! Saturn is quite large. This gorgeous picture was snapped back in August by Cassini, and it captures the true hulking might of the planet named after a video game system. That’s where it came from, right? Shame it couldn’t have been named after a more wonderful gaming system, but hey. Who could have known?
SATURN’S SIZE will make you feel like the mite you are. Relativity ++
Our fat brains can’t really process things. Consider Saturn’s sheer enormity in comparison to us. Then try and comprehend how small in relation to the sun. Then appreciate how fucking small the Sun is in the grand scheme. Nosebleed incoming!
Saturn ninjas its own rings with SHADOWS of DOOM. Or something.
Cassini has been capable of capturing some pretty righteous space pictures as it goes about in the Saturn system. This little bit of lighting awesomeness is only the latest example. Where be the rings, you ask? Double doi! I respond. In the shadow.
SATURN’S MOON IAPETUS got itself some pretty gnarly avalanches.
You think you’re surfing the gnarly waves of crystallized water stuff here on Erf, brah? Think again. Saturn’s moon Iapetus is where all the legitimate skier people are going. We’re talking avalanches like a mofuckah.’

This video reminds me of some straight-up Méliès shit. Nahum Chazarra is a geology student who has piece together eight years of pictures from Cassini into a jittery batch of gorgeous video.
Close-Up of Saturn’s Moon Dione Reveals Pock Marks, But She Is Still A Beautiful Bitty.
Hell of a picture right hurr, taken by Cassini. Check out a close-up of Saturn’s moon Dione, with all sorts of interesting things happening in the back ground.

Jet Set Radio HD Is REAL, Gets A TRAILER. Nostalgia Swoon
Oh fuck my tits get hard when thinking about my Dreamcast. What a fucking system. I’m not even stunting. One of the true glories of the system was Jet Set Radio. Christ, I haven’t thought of that game in a serious minute. Anyways, it’s coming to XBLA and PSN this summer in tuned-up HD swagger.
Hit the jump for the trailer.
