It sure looks like a sponge.:jester:

I always had the impression that moons have to be some sort of sphere. I guess I was wrong.

Great find willebenn :thumbs: . You've just increased my knowledge today.

Wow, those are a lot better views than my, Orion XT8 dobsonian, telescope can get of saturn's moons :D BTW, did you all hear about the discovery of the 10th planet?
