Saturn's auroral displays


This is the Infrared imagery from the Cassini orbiter, the northern lights on Saturn. The observation marked the first time a hexagon in atmospheric patterns - auroral displays. It is the planet's polar cloud patterns in shades of red. The scientists concluded that these auroral displays should not exist. They thought it was strange and unusual. Isn't that pretty and mysterious? I always like astronomy. It is very interesting to me - how God made the universe.
