When the clock strikes midnight on Dec. 31st, heralding the start of 2004, dash
outside and look up. Directly overhead you'll see a yellow star outshining the others around it.
That star is a planet: Saturn, having its closest encounter with Earth for the next 29 years.
"Saturn's going to be really beautiful," says NASA astronomer Mitzi Adams. "Not only will Saturn
be about as close to Earth as it can get--748 million miles away--but also its rings are tipped
toward us. Sunlight reflected from Saturn's rings makes the planet extra bright."
