Hi, just a Saturn message from Cassini outreach, JPL.

The Saturn viewing season is winding down. Saturn will be a good target for another month or so, and then will be getting lower in the western evening sky, and it won't be such a good telescopic target. In late July Saturn will be in conjunction with the sun. Solar conjunction occurs when the Sun is between Saturn and Earth. After that Saturn will appear in the morning sky for the remainder of the year.

Have a look at the Cassini image released today - a new moon in Saturn's small gap in the A ring - called the Keeler gap. saturn.jpl.nasa.gov/home/index.cfm
