...Though devotees crave great driving, everyone knows there's more to F1 than that. In fact, motor racing leaves many sports lovers cold because all they see is the cars, not a genuine human-to-human contest.

...effect of gravity on the moon is different from one point to another, and different from the planet's other moons. "That difference in the tug would be enough to cause the body to distort differently as it goes around Saturn." The friction created when sides of the tiger stripes are pulled apart or pushed together at different points during orbit may be creating the heat that ultimately causes the eruptions...
