Saturn the planet that has fascinated people through centuries yet again spellbound with its unusual behavior. With the new images, sent by Cassini spacecraft on the Saturn mission, its time to observe the planet closely. The “string of pearls” opens all new field for the scientists to investigate.
The “pearls” which were actually large cloud clearings have been observed around the planet for the first time, which might be a result of a large planetary cloud formation. Scientists might be able to see through the dense atmosphere of Saturn due to the large cloud clearings, which might prove the pointer for the unraveled mysteries of the much-talked planet.
With this we can hope to know more about Saturn or Shani (the planet that brings bad fate) as it is called in the Indian astrology.

Guess another reason to pop out the telescope and try to glimpse this beauty from afar.
Saturn seems to always captivate the eyes for some strange reason.
If we ever get a chance to actually colonize that planetary system (in the next century or two) I would not be surprised to find Saturn a tourist spot for scientists and space lovers alike.
