and Cassini's radio receiver started picking up lightning emissions. The storm grew to a 10,000 km-diameter monster with a tail that wrapped around the planet until it faded in mid-summer of 2011. These giant storms are rare. The last one was in 1990, and
there have only been six of them, including this one, since 1876. I will discuss the properties and behavior of these storms, and I will present a theory for why Saturn is able to store convective potential energy for 30 years while Earth and Jupiter seem
to release it every few hours or every day.</span></div><div style="font-size: medium; "><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div>
