We've never seen Saturn looking like this before. New images beamed back from the Cassini spacecraft show Saturn's distinctive rings in unprecedented detail.
While the rings,Watch Nun in Rope Hell (1984) full movie as a whole, look like perfectly smooth disks from a distance, when viewed from close range, the smaller-scale bits of ice, dust and rock that form the rings can be spotted.

Some of the high-resolution images also harbor views of tiny "moonlets" in the planet's rings, according to NASA.

Cassini is currently in an orbit that brings it past the outer parts of the rings every week.

Once those orbits are finished, the real fun can begin.
On April 26, Cassini is expected to start diving between Saturn and its inner-most ring -- a daring orbit never attempted before.

But for now, savor these portraits of Saturn as they're sent back from the intrepid probe as it makes the most of its final months exploring the large world.
