CSMonitor.com - What's a monster hurricane doing on top of Saturn? Apr 30, 2013


NASA's Cassini spacecraft has captured images of a monster hurricane at Saturn's north pole – a storm so vast and powerful it makes tropical cyclones on Earth look tame by comparison. Are you scientifically literate? Take our quiz Where did Saturn's rings come from? Mystery gets a new clue. NASA probe spots bizarre lightning storm on Saturn Life on Saturn moon? Discovery of hidden ocean on Titan tantalizes. The storm's eye alone spans some 1,250 miles – about the distance from North Carolina's Outer Banks to central Kansas. Wind speeds at the inner eye wall have been clocked at 330 miles an hour. The storm extends for another 600 to 700 miles beyond the eye. Like a hurricane eye on Earth, the eye of Saturn is virtually cloudless, with tall clouds forming the eye wall and extending out from the eye.
