Stunning.

 

Cassini also picked up some crazy radio waves from Saturn; after being time compressed and shifted into range of hearing, it sounds a little like Complex Mathematical equation:

Fuck yes, it's been one of my desktops for so long, but I always marvel at it every time it shows up on screen.

 

Those sounds go so well with the last 3 minutes of Stars of the Lid's "December Hunting for Vegetarian Fuckface".

I'm still trying to reconcile these images with the images of saturn I used to have hanging on my wall as a kid. I remember those ones all had fairly distinct bands on the planet itself (presumably not shadows from the rings, but actual color striations. Kind of like this image:

jupiter-saturn.jpg

 

were those bands exaggerated by shitty photography, or did the storms clear up?

After this I listened to geogaddi and I didn't like it, I was quite vomitting at some tracks, I realized they were too crazy for my ears, they took too much acid to play music I stupidly thought (cliché of psyché music) But I knew this album was a kind of big forest where I just wasn't able to go inside.

I was in US tjis summer, and eat in KFC. FUCK That's the worst thing i've ever eaten. The flesh simply doesn't cleave to the bones. Battery ferming. And then, foie gras is banned from NY state, because it's considered as ill-treat. IT'S NOT. KFC is tourist ill-treat. YOU POISONERS! Two hours after being to KFC, i stopped in a amsih little town barf all that KFC shit out. Nice work!

 

So i hope this woman is not like kfc chicken, otherwise she'll be pulled to pieces.

You're also looking at the dark side of Saturn through the scattered light there, not because of the reflection from the rings or anythign - it's is the least dense planet in our solar system (less dense than water...Saturn would float in water lol!)

Edit: I'm wrong, the dark-side is being lit by ring-shine clearly I'm a dumbass. The body of Saturn isn't see-through

That's Here.

That's Home.

That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there – on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.
