Ukusuka I-NASA Umfanekiso weenkwenkwezi wemihla , ICassini ispacecraft yangena ISaturn ’ isithunzi malunga neeyure ezilishumi elinambini ngelixa ujonge ngasemva kwilanga elisibekileyo, kwaye uthwebula umfanekiso ongasentla. I-NASA icacisa:
Okokuqala, i icala lasebusuku likaSaturn kubonakala ngathi kukhanyisiwe ngokuyinxenye kukukhanya okuboniswe kukokwayo inkqubo ring ring . Emva koko, amakhonkco ngokwawo avela mnyama xa ngca ngokuchasene noSaturn, kodwa kuyakhanya xa ujongwa kude noSaturn, ukusasazeka kancinci ukukhanya kwelanga, kule umfanekiso wombala obaxiweyo . Amakhonkco kaSaturn akhanyisa kakhulu kangangokuba amakhonkco amatsha zafunyanwa, nangona kunzima ukuzibona emfanekisweni. Kubonwa ngokweenkcukacha ezimangalisayo, nangona kunjalo, nguSaturn Isangqa Isangqa esidalwe sisandula ukufunyanwa imithombo yomkhenkce yenyanga Enceladus kunye nomsesane ongaphandle ubonakala ngasentla. Kude kwi umgama , ngasekhohlo, ngaphezulu nje kwamakhonkco aphambili aqaqambileyo, yeyona nto ingathandekiyo ichaphaza eliluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka Zomhlaba.
Ndiyazibuza ukuba ndingakhangeleka njani ukuba uCassini ujikeleze phambi kwam kangangeeyure ezilishumi elinambini. Mhlawumbi kuninzi njengoSaturn.
