Launched in 1997, the Cassini Orbiter mission has provided a wealth of information on Saturn. The 'Grand Finale' phase provided a plethora of unique observations that have fundamentally changed our understanding of the planet and allowed for the collection of images fifteen times sharper than previously achieved. It also probed the tenuous outer reaches of the atmosphere, Saturn's inner ring system, and the planet's innermost magnetosphere, which yielded gravitational moments with unprecedented accuracy and revealed Saturn's bulk rate of rotation and its internal structure. Written by the World's foremost Saturn experts, this book covers all aspects of Saturn science, from its origin and evolution to the structure of its interior, atmosphere, magnetosphere and radiation belts - including two inner belts discovered by the Cassini Mission. Presenting the latest Cassini results, this is an indispensable reference book for graduate students, researchers and professional scientists in planetary science, atmospheric science and magnetospheric science.
