So, while this is a remaster of a very old video, I've changed so much of it that it's basically a brand new video. Enjoy!
Glad to see you updating old videos, weather it be quality or information. Or both 👍
Thanks!
Thank you for this video, I've been watching your content for quite a while now and honestly can never wait for the next one. Keep it up and thanks again!! 👍
@@shaund2635 ... you must wait, you have no choice...
@@Quickened1 Lol I know, it's okay really. Just makes for better watching when the next one drops 😉
thank you all for the nice compliments!.. i am sorry about Casinni, it was not on purpose
:(
It's ok
We forgive you saturn
Lol no worries 💛
Its alright! You coulda kept it in your orbit though. :(
Saturn, met me, your twin but i have bigger ring
That picture of Saturn backlit by the sun is just so gorgeous! The wonders of our universe never cease.
Thanks for the video Alex, always a pleasure to look at the Ringed Giant.
I can't believe thats an actual picture and not an illustration or render. Amazing. Unbelievable that humans can send a machine to another planet and take such pictures, what a power of intelligence.
Timestamp?
@@jarjar7872 12:02
How can anyone not feel awe when presented with images of mighty Saturn?
So big, majestic and beautiful. Always was my favorite of planets.
Those are 16yr who play among us for whole day
Thank you
@@saturn7008 yw babe
Thanks
Definitely. And it's even more amazing to think that there's at least one "super Saturn" out there with rings so big that if it was exchanged with Saturn, they would be as big as the Moon in the night sky.
Quite possibly the most beautiful picture in our Solar System, is that of a backlit Saturn featuring us as the little blue dot obscured in the dust.
12:17 Much zoom.
So magnify
Wow
The portrait of Saturn and Earth in the same shot, wow. Gets things into perspective.
I love hearing your passion, excitement and your smile in the voice. It is always a pleasure to listen. :)
♥️
I love Saturn , its just such a beautiful planet. Sending u all the best from South Africa :)
Saturn isn’t the only planet to have rings, but it definitely has the most beautiful ones 🖤🌀
the most surprising were the rings around Uranus...
@@Quickened1 Let's keep this PG 😝
@@apocalypse487 ... look it up, the rings around Uranus are the most surprising because they actually face us, instead of being on edge... get your mind out if the gutter!!! 🙈🙉🙊 Haha...
i thought u are the official nASA channel
@M yea
This was the first Planet I saw with my own two eyes. During one of the conjunctions in 2021. In extremely clear skies with no light pollution on a farm in Mississippi. Saturn has easily become my favorite Planet and sparked my interest to the cosmos.
That's was an awe inspiring sight, I was able to get an amazing view of it with a cheap refractor telescope from around 7000 feet above sea level.
You dont need to be in the middle of nowhere to see saturn??? Its about as bright as vega?? Its not that dim??
Very impressive. So many beautiful pictures. 11:50 is indeed very breathtaking and then you point to the earth. Just incredible.
Mission Director: Where's Cassini going?
Navigator: Probably headed towards that small moon
Mission Director: **sees Mimas through Cassini's instruments**
Mission Director: That's no moon 😳
lmao! 😂
Cassini was my favorite mission, absolutely beautiful photos and amazing information to be learned from our neighbor
Dude, this is badass. Im glad I could live long enough to see actual high resolution pics of actual planets. Even Earth selfies!
Such a beautiful planet. The rings of Saturn always fascinated me so much as a kid.
Beautiful and majestic Saturn. I dream the day our starships will "park" around it's orbit for us to appreciate it's beauty.
Saturn is the understated diamond of the solar system
The rings are just totally awesome. How can anyone not be blown away by the majesty of it all. Just to be able to see this in detail is a privilege. Saturn is the centrefold of all planets.
What I don’t like of this video is that it is (almost) making me change my favourite planet from Jupiter to Saturn ! Other than that great video and breathtaking pictures! 🪐
It's hypothesized that the formation of Saturn prevented Jupiter from completing its journey to the centre of the Solar System, effectively drifting into the Sun. This is according to the theory that Jupiter drifted towards the Sun during the early formation of what we consider to be our solar system. I've gone off on a bit of a tangent but what I originally meant to say was that you can like em both equally, as they (possibly) worked together to get to their current positions, relatively far away from the sun.
Beautiful godmother of the Solar System with a precious gem called Titan.
Don't forget the highly reflective gem of a moon Enceladus,
and of course the Mighty Death Star Moon Mimas
@@hevendor958
And Tethys. Mimas is DS-1, Tethys is DS-2
And let's not forget the rings around Uranus, 😁
Um.... yeah! 👍
My favorite planet "the lord of rings" 😍thank you Cassini..... you stole my heart 💖
You sure know where to find the pretty pictures!
I sometimes get excited into higher energies but not so often these days.
I know exactly what you mean
Damn, I am sad you didn't mention the orbital dance between Janus and Epimetheus because it is my personal favorite part of the Saturnian system. They are moons that basically share the same orbit and trade positions back and forth!
There was a lot more that I could have talked about, I'll just have to save them for future episodes :)
@@astrumspace I plan to keep watching forever so on a long enough time frame I am expecting them to be mentioned!
Thank you for remastering this series.
I love the picture of Saturn with a little dot showing the earth,.. that’s so cool. Just reminds us how tiny we are in the universe
Dear CZcams, I ALWAYS skip the ads.
@ASTRUM I have been following your channel for a long time now. I enjoy all of the videos you have posted but this one is the cherry on the cake! Beautifully narrated with a calm voice and subtle information. Thank you :) Astrum and Alex :)
We need to send 4k cameras to Saturn and the rest of the planets in our solar system. I'd be down to help fund that.
We have to spend our money supporting people who don’t work.
@@generalralph6291 Based
Just help me find a job you might be rich or something 😊
@@generalralph6291 Tell them to work.
@@generalralph6291 yeah..much better to impoverish them and then make the only employment in the military so they can die overseas for oil theft and profits...sad little dimwit sheep...baah...baah
Without doubt Saturn it's one of the most beautiful planets from the solar sistem.
It's incredible how this planet can float if we put in a bathtub or in a swimming pool, it's an amazing world who also has incredible moons .
Thanks for the information Alex, Great november for everybody 👋, greetings from mexico 🇲🇽.
Saturn is not only my favourite planet, it's also my favourite from Holtz's Planet Suite.
just when i though i couldnt learn anything new.... the Pheobe dust and Iapetus's color makes so much sense!
Thank you for including the word "wonky" in a video about science and space. Makes it a little more real...
I really enjoy your content because you emphasize that there is so much we don't know, and don't just pass on theories as facts. Also very calming, interesting and wondrous videos, thank you.
Saturn and its rings are so beautiful. Truly stunning when you think about the scale of everything too
What a beautiful planet, thank you for reuploading this video Alex.
I do a fair bit of astronomy public outreach. Saturn ALWAYS blows peoples minds. I have a homemade 17.5" reflector and I often hear "It looks just like pictures"
- Saturn is my favourite planet ✅
- Enceladus and Titan are one of my favourite moons (+ some other moons of Saturn)✅
- Cassini-Huygens is one of my favourite probes ✅
- This video is great ✅✅
"Much zoom".
That got way too technical for me.
Doge meme references never get old!
I’ve seen this video like 6 times now, 3 times the old one and 3 times now. I love Saturn 🪐 and your videos! Keep it up!
What a gorgeous planet. Thanks so much for your videos!
I learned more in this 16 minute video than I learned in all my years of school and college.
I LOVE your videos!
Been rewatching this over and over for a few days now and it's always excellent 👌
Wow Alex, the quality was bonkers. That must have been a lot of work, but the quality of the result is just... *chef kiss*. Thank you!!
Man you could literally just stream a slide show of these pictures and I’d watch. That said I do enjoy your narration.
Appreciate the text descriptions with the images/footage you're showing. Not many CZcamsrs do that
Beautiful pictures
This is my favorite planet.
Really beautifull images and a well designed script to present them.
These updates are great and I wouldn't mind another update of these videos in another year or twos time. Haha. Loving your videos man. As an avid CZcams I click on your videos the fastest
Wonderful! I could look at images from Saturn for hours.
Wow! Blown-away & enjoyed to a great extend!
Thank you for this passionate & delightful as well as well-crafted presentation! Top!
Holy Hannah, fantastic work! Thank you! So beautiful.
This is one of the best videos I have ever seen in my life!!! Very informative and very beautiful. Thanks.
Possibly the most beautiful planet out there, Saturn is by far my most favorite planet, there is just so much about Saturn that makes the planet stand out so much over every other, the rings of course are the main attraction. It isn't the only planet with rings, but it is the only one with such amazingly visible rings that look super smooth. Man what I sight it would be to see Saturn in person with your own eyes, not through a telescope or picture or video, but through the glass of a space craft. How lucky are we to have such a beautiful planet in our solar system.
You passion for this is palpable, and contagious. Thank you so much!
My favorite planet in Solar system.
I love this channel! The universe is bigger than all the minutiae going on here on our planet!
Have been waiting for this one!
I love this channel.
Excellent video! Thanks, It really brought the rings to life with the explanation, I had no idea that the dust from the Phoebe ring was landing on Iapetus like that!!!! Going to go deep dive on Iapetus now :)
Thank you Alex you're awsome appreciate and enjoy your videos and all the work you put into them keep em coming 💯💯
As a very young kid, my favorite planet in our Solar System was always Saturn. It always had such an air of mystery and majesty. Really looking forward to this video :)
Yeah Saturn is like Dulphins in the ocean. I like sharks! Sea horses aren't bad! The male has the babies!
I love this channel. Please continue the great work! Thank you.
I can hear the passion in your voice. Great work
that saturn backlit by the sun is currently my wallpaper background. such a beautiful picture
Just one video is enough to get me subscribed. The soundtrack is amazing. Congratulations and thanks for the great content
I LOVE your videos and I'm glad you remade this one
Thank you for making these. I am fascinated by the technological advancements.
Your videos are just the tonic on a night such as this!
Man, you know the art of making spectacular videos.
Excellent content. Beautiful images and accurate scientific explanations
That backlit pic of Saturn and its rings and earth was fantastic!!
On the subject of Saturn, maybe you could do a short video about The Great Conjunction coming up. There must be some interesting facts associated to it I would have thought.
I’m excited for that
I re-watched the old one yesterday lol
Amazing video Astrum!
One of the most beautiful things Alex, thank you lots. Its my first ever you tube comment just to drive the point home.
Love Saturn, for some reason - it's such a majestic, aweinspiring behemoth of a planet.
Truly amazing. Great video. Good narration. Nice photography. Well done Alex👍
Another awesome Astrum video. Thanks and keep em coming please.
very informative video ! love this, keep it up Astrum !
I love these videos, keep up the great work!
Wonderful video about this beautiful planet ^_^ .. Saturn is my favorite planet.. It looks so small in my telescope, but the fantastic rings are still very clear and fascinating
Awesome work, your videos are the best. I always learn so much from them. Thanks!
Wow, would a wonderful video. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Can't wait to see more
Awesome presentation thank you
Watching these videos make you feel so small in the bigger picture. Not in a bad way. The Universe is just so huge and we are so small and should enjoy these videos and not worry about things like we do. There is so much more out there to discover!
Outstanding presentation
I only recently discovered your site. Your vision is beautifully presented to be enjoyed by both, the non lay man, and the more proficient astronomer. Absolutely fascinating and you have a pleasant voice perfectly suitable for educational purposes. Cheers!
I love your vids man. Keep up the good work 👍
We need more of this series. (I know. I’ve seen the old versions)
Wonderful update, thanks for your work.
Would love to see a Ganymede video
Great video, great job as usual!
Wow, with the storms on Saturn the pattern it produces reminds me of Vincent Van Gogh's paintings
Fluid dynamics. 🙂
Seeing Saturn through a good telescope is both breathtaking and humbling. We are lucky to have such amazing diversity of planets in our system. Though a superearth-like planet would be cool to have nearby.
Amazing video! Thanks!
Outstanding video!
Outstanding as usual!
