Back in 1995 I had no chance owning Sega Saturn :blobcatgamer: Most folks I knew, who owned gaming consoles, pretty much jumped from :sega: Mega Drive (Genesis) to Sony PlayStation 1 :ps1: - there hasn't been many (if any) :segasaturn: units around in Lithuania back then :blobcatnerd:

Yet Sega Saturn is awesome console with CD tray (for game discs) and cartridge slot (mainly used to extend memory). Joystics still feels top: inheriting shape and layout from Mega Drive :blobcatthumbsup:

Can you spot 10 differences in this photo? :blobcatcheer:

🚀 Astronomers have discovered 128 new moons orbiting Saturn, bringing its total to 274—almost twice as many as all other planets combined. These small, irregular moons provide insights into the early solar system's dynamics and the origin of Saturn's rings.

#Saturn's Iapetus: Painted #Moon in 3D

Saturn's moon Iapetus displays stark contrasts with dark brown and bright white regions, possibly due to carbon-rich material.
