the-star-stuff: Cassini sees objects blazing trails in Saturn ring The findings show astronomers that the F ring region is like a bustling zoo of objects. By NASA Headquarters, Washington, D.C. — Published: April 24, 2012 Scientists working with images from NASA’s Cassini spacecraft have discovered strange half-mile-sized objects punching through parts of Saturn’s F ring, leaving glittering trails behind them. These trails in the rings, which scientists are calling “mini-jets,” fill in a missing link in astronomers’ story of the curious behavior of the F ring.  Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/SSI/QMUL
