Saturn’s Ring
( Space News: On September 15, 2017, the Cassini spacecraft plunged into Saturn, after proving the planet’s moon Prometheus created the inner ring alone and not together with Pandora as previously believed.)

Falling in line with saturnine effect
Cassini, the spacecraft
crashed on Saturn’s surface,
after crediting Prometheus
in shaping a narrow ring,
and canceling Pandora’s part.

A dizzy tumble for Cassini
yet, well-deserved heavenly justice
and Pandora with the bruised ego,
though she is afloat on the silent sky,
I feel like reaching out to touch
in empathy.
