In its last days, the Cassini spacecraft looped between Saturn and its rings so that Earth-based radio telescopes could track the gravitational tug of each. Scientists have now used these measurements to determine the mass of the rings and estimate its age, which is young: 10-100 million years. This supports the hypothesis that the rings are rubble from a comet or Kuiper Belt object captured late in Saturn's history. [1] We admire what is beautiful. But beauty is not life. Bauty is made out of death. Death of a small planet. Death of the dasein of the moment. Death of us.
Look at that butterfly dying…
At that river drying out…
Can you feel the world flying?
Can you feel the water on your feet?
At every passing moment that you smile…
Can you feel the world dying?
