in reply to (moving) APOD
To give an idea of size and distance the moon is currently 384400Km away and Saturn 1297 million Km away making it 3375 times further away than the moon and therefore 3375 times smaller than it would be at the same distance as the moon.
Saturn is huge!

A lot better than the shot I got of Saturn partly occluded by the moon. Granted, it was taken by holding a Sony Mavica camera to the eyepiece of a $79 3" reflector in 2011.

But the real question is "how?". My understanding is that the thrusters are not reliable and the helium leaks are both internal and external. And if the leaks are external that can interfere with thrust and guidance.
