I’m sure that this has been mentioned on the boards somewhere, but I wasn’t able find any…

Crazy cool [pic](http://www.astrobio.net/news/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=1101&mode=thread&order=0&thold=0) from Cassini of Mimas, one of Saturn’s 31 moons.

So my question is…

Is George Lucas astrally projecting himself into deep space for inspiration??? 😕 :eek: 😕 :eek:

The quality of the past 2 StarWars films suggest that he might’ve damaged his brain by projected himself one time to many…

Enquiring minds want to know! 😃
