Wow. Look, it's Saturn! Seen from the wrong side!
Some pretty awesome composite images from NASA's Cassini probe are catalogued here. Apparently, this view of the planet backlit by the sun shows us rings that we never knew Saturn had, but you can go look at the catalogue for the proper sciencey stuff. For pure aesthetic attraction, this one is my favourite.

I have seen this image a number of times and it is still stunning. Thanks for a beautiful beginning to my day!
I hadn't seen it. Thanks for introducing me.
