🧪⚛️. If NIH can do this, expect all the other agencies to be under enormous pressure to follow suit. If that happens, for a sense of scale, I think it would cut MIT’s annual budget by something like $130M, depending on their effective rate. arstechnica.com/science/2025...

Among Cassini spacecraft's many gifts, this one is particularly rare and valuable since images like this can only be taken while the sun is behind the planet.

We are obviously talking about Saturn, the king of the rings.

Source➡️https://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA14934
This splendid image shows planet Saturn taken by Cassini spacecraft on 17 October 2012 while it was in Saturn's shadow. The cameras were turned toward Saturn and the sun so that the planet and rings are backlit. On the left side of the image (below the rings), two of the planet's moons are also visible: Enceladus (closer to the rings) and Tethys (bottom left).
