Marvelous Mars and sublime Saturn have struck poses for the Hubble Space Telescope, and they look gorgeous. 

Both Mars and Saturn have come close-ish to Earth this summer for events known as an opposition, which happens when the sun and a planet are lined up on opposite sides of Earth, like a celestial sandwich. This is the perfect time for astronomers to get good looks at our solar system companions.
