This incredible image is of something careening through Saturn's rings. Whatever this object is, as it's sailing though the rings, it's dragging a trail of debris behind it. The long shadow is being cast because Saturn's rings are almost edge on towards the sun. The exact process that created this dazzling effect still seems to be a mystery.
