Although This Picture Is A Few Days Old,

I just had to post it,


the picture above is from NASA/JPL-Caltech/Space Science Institute/Jason Major, after two decades in space, NASA’s Cassini spacecraft made its final plunge into the giant planet on September 15, 2017, above is the final full image of Saturn, made from raw images acquired by Cassini on September 13, 2017, according to Jason Major, "These images are uncalibrated for colour but were acquired in visible-light RGB filters. The mosaic comprises 11 colour composites, each a stack of three images taken in red, green, and blue channels. They were adjusted for brightness and colour to be fairly uniform across the whole view." amazing.
