This animation released by NASA shows a series of views from the Cassini spacecraft of one of the most bizarre features in the solar system; the Hexagon-shape at the north pole of Saturn. I have no idea why there’s a Hexagon there and I still am waiting for someone to give a real strong explanation.This feature is a stable storm with 320 kilometer per hour swirling winds, yet somehow it doesn’t disrupt the geometric pattern. It’s been there for years now, perhaps decades. Aside from that, there’s a very cool pattern of swirling winds and shifting clouds visible in the image sequence. This image covers about 10 hours. It was able to be taken this year because of changing seasons on Saturn - it’s now summer in the northern hemisphere, so this part of Saturn is now illuminated by the sun. -- source link
