DreamUp AI-generated image: Saturn Backlit by Blue Hypergiant Sun, Version 1

This next set was inspired by the Cassini probe's series of images showing Saturn's rings being backlit by the sun. Unfortunately, the results are - mostly - not what I had in mind. The blue hypergiant sun was inspired by me running SpaceEngine, and temporarily changing the sun into a blue hypergiant. At least here, the blue hypergiant sun makes its appearance, so that matches my intent. The red star nearby would likely contribute to the varied lighting that we see on Saturn itself, so I'm not complaining. Saturn's rings also seem to be spiraling inward, although that could just be an effect of the lighting. A similar phenomenon happened with some of the images that Cassini sent back, in which Saturn appeared to be in front of its own rings, due to the exposure settings, as well as the angle of the lighting, so the AI could just be trying to mimic that.
