Are Saturn’s rings actually young?
Nature Astronomy, 2019 Spectacular results from Cassini’s Grand Finale have provided constraints on the characteristics and evolutionary processes of Saturn’s rings. These results have been interpreted as proof that the rings are much younger than the Solar System, dramatically changing our view of the origin of the whole Saturnian system and attracting the attention of ...

Evolution of Terrestrial Planetary Bodies and Implications for Habitability
Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 63, Issue 4, December 2025.Abstract The terrestrial planetary bodies of our solar system—Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars—share a common origin through nebular accretion and early magma ocean differentiation, yet they diverged significantly in geological evolution, tectonic regimes, and habitability.

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 22, 28 November 2025.Abstract During the T119 bistatic radar (BSR) experiment, the Cassini spacecraft observed a collection of lakes in Titan's Northern Lake District. Specular reflections from liquid surfaces were clearly detected at X‐band ground‐based station DSS‐43 (Canberra), spaced out by sudden drops of power in correspondence to solid terrains.

Saturn orbiter mission study [PDF]
A preliminary analysis of the important aspects of missions orbiting the planet Saturn is provided. Orbital missions to Saturn is given serious consideration for the 1980's, or after flybys by Pioneer 10/G and Mariner Jupiter-Saturn 1977.

Current Events at Saturn: Ring–Planet Electromagnetic Coupling
The Planetary Science JournalThis study presents a synthesized analysis of in situ and ground-based observations to investigate electromagnetic coupling between Saturn and its rings. During the Cassini Grand Finale, the magnetometer detected gradients in the azimuthal magnetic field

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 22, 28 November 2025.Abstract Voyager 2 provided the only direct measurement of the radiation environment at Uranus and established the well‐accepted characterization of a system with a weaker ion radiation belt and surprisingly intense electron radiation belt. Recent re‐analysis of the flyby, however, suggests that these observations were not taken during normal solar ...

Cassini CAPS‐ELS Observations of Low‐Energy Electron Beams Within Enceladus Mid‐Latitude Flux Tubes
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 22, 28 November 2025.Abstract The electrodynamic interaction between Saturn's magnetosphere and Enceladus accelerates electrons along magnetic field lines. These electrons propagate inside magnetic flux tubes connecting the moon to the giant planet, generating distinctive auroral hiss and auroral footprint signatures, both previously observed by the Cassini spacecraft.

The Sisyphus particle detector [PDF]
The particle measurement subsystem planned for the MJS 77 mission is described. Scientific objectives with respect to Saturn's rings are as follows: (1) measure particles outside the visible rings, including particulates orbiting in more distant rings ...
