Re: Saturn’s rings have their own atmosphere
Great story, C1ay.
For an article I'm doing at work I called up one of the scientists, Knut Svenes, here in Norway who works on the Cassini data and wow they are learning a lot about the Saturnian system. The atmosphere thing is something they have expected but only now been able to prove.
I had to ask him the inevitable, of course, whether there was any chance for life but he flatly denied it. We are looking at a very thin atmosphere in a very harsh environment and little heat...but the idea is neat.
