In 1610, Galileo was the first person to observe Saturn through a telescope, and he was amazed to find what he called cup handles around the planet. Fifty years would pass before these cup handles were correctly identified by a Dutch astronomer, Christiaan Huygens, as rings. Saturn, the most distant of the planets known to the ancients, is examined in this book by Stephen Feinstein. Included is information about current and future missions to study the planet described by NASA as the most varied natural laboratory within our reach.
