Cassini Website Wins Webby Science Award
05.14.2009  12:30


I am a few days behind the curve reporting this, but it is an honorable mention. The Cassini-Huygens mission to Saturn and its largest moon Titan has returned an unfathomable amount of extraordinary science data and breathtaking images. If you have not yet visited the mission website, it presents the latest processed images in a very cool way, and makes it easy to search for archived images, articles, and other information. You can even view raw images, and attempt to spot interesting details before the Cassini scientists themselves do.

With that background, it is not a terribly big surprise that a U.S. government or NASA website took first prize for the 2009 Science Webby award. Speaking of which, NASA.gov also clenched the title for best government website again this year.
