Hi all-

Most mornings I check out the “picture of the day” (link below) - For a Naturalistic Pagan like me, it can be sort of a daily devotional. Anyway, today’s picture is cool, from the Cassini spacecraft (I can’t wait to see what the surface of Titan looks like, when Huygens is dropped on that moon in a few weeks!). The dark bands are the shadows of Saturn’s rings on Saturn, and the small moon looks cool. I thought I’d pass it along. Here is the site, the picture is below.

May the stars light your path-
