Coming Attractions: Rings, Moons and Mystery

Saturn, a planet of beauty and wonder, may also hold clues that help explain
how our solar system formed. A new flash presentation describes what the
Cassini-Huygens mission will study when it arrives at the ringed world on
June 30. Images and video clips featuring mission scientists explain what we
currently know about Saturn and what mysteries researchers hope to solve.
