Space Video of the Day - 070917

A week ago, the Cassini spacecraft did a flyby of Saturn's moon Iapetus, giving us the clearest view yet of this strange moon. There is an equatorial mountain range circling the moon, with some mountains up to 20 kilometers tall; it almost looks like the moon was broken apart and squished back together.
