Waves in the upper atmosphere sculpt a giant storm at Saturn's north pole into a hexagonal shape. This true-color view was snapped by the Cassini spacecraft in 2013. Saturn is putting in its best showing of the year in late May and early June, shining like a bright golden star not far from even brighter Mars. [NASA/JPL/SSI]
