The Mistery Hexagon On Saturn

Saturn is the sixth planet in our solar system, and is the second terbedar planet. Saturn's distance from the sun is about 1.4 billion km (9 light years). This planet appears different from the other planets, it has a ring encircling the giant gas cloud that looks like a flying saucer.

NASA sent several satellites to observe the planets in our solar system, as well as observations of the planet Saturn. The four operational satellites around Saturn is Pioneer11 and Voyager1, and Cassini-Huygens Voyager2.

In November 2006, an image taken by satellite Voyager1, surprisingly enough the observator NASA. At the north pole of the planet Saturn appears the a Hexagon shape (octagon) are so striking, the observers then focused observations of the present invention.

In the next picture is more detailed, Hexagon it looked like a vortex of clouds in the planet's surface, but the form of this octagon, inviting questions. In physics circular motion to create a circle, and it is not possible to form a Hexagon.

Each side of the Hexagon range from 13,800 km in length. Some observator argues that there is life on Saturn's Hexagon shapes arise because of the effect created by the building occupants Saturn. This belief was strengthened by subsequent observations showed that the rotary motion of the Hexagon is not in harmony with the motion of Saturn's gravity itself.

Observator others argue that there is little possibility of life on Saturn since the composition of the planet is a gas mostly hydrogen, helium and a few percent of particles of rocks. Hexagon on Saturn's north pole is still a mystery and leaves a big question unanswered, for observers and observator NASA.
