LJ doesn't seem to want me to embed the video, so I'll just give a link to the original site; it's worth watching full screen.

The movie there was assembled from a huge number of still photos of Saturn taken by the Cassini probe, and it's absolutely fantastic. The best part is the full-color section, which starts a little before the one minute mark. I continue to find it amazing that we live in an era when we can actually see these sights "for real" like this... and I hope that one day, we human beings will be able to see it in person.
