Pretty cool. When I see the rings of Saturn, it reminds me of patterns of dust particles on a vibrating surface, but in 3D instead of 2D. That planet is ringing like a bell, and I'd love to hear it.

The irony being if you pumped in enough atmosphere to hear it, it would destroy the rings.

But Saturn has an atmosphere.

 

Have you seen the hexagonal feature on its north pole? That one reminds me of experiments with spinning buckets of water at various frequencies to get various polygon shapes to from in the center.

Or as I once managed to start a drunken brawl by saying: gods graphics card was bugging out.
