I'm not saying it's aliens - but it's aliens.

This strange something was spotted by accident on April 15 when Cassini’s cameras were aimed at a tiny moon named Prometheus that orbits just inside another of Saturn’s rings. A member of the mission’s imaging team, astronomer Carl Murray of Queen Mary University of London, noticed an odd kink at the A ring’s edge that jutted outward.
“I’d not seen anything like this personally in the A ring,” he said during a talk today here at the 2013American Geophysical Union conference.

  1. It's clearly an alien spacecraft that is stalking the Cassini probe.
