I just about fell on my arse the first time I saw Saturn through my telescope, actually looking at it and seeing the rings. Rings, right around a planet, right there. I couldn't see a lot of of detail because it's a fairly small refractor but there it was, a planet with rings.
Rings. Right around a whole fucking planet. Right there for everyone with a couple of hundred quid's worth of glass and aluminium and a reasonable view of the night sky to see. Just, right there in the sky, bright and clear.
