What does Saturn’s retrograde really look like? Let’s compare the view from Earth and space! 🪐⁠ ⁠ When Saturn appears to move backward in the sky, it’s not actually reversing — it’s an illusion caused by Earth overtaking it in orbit, like passing a slower car 🚗⁠ ⁠ From Earth, Saturn loops backward.

Retrograde happens when a planet seems to move backward (from east to west) instead of its usual direction (west to east). This is due to differences in orbital speeds as Earth and the planets revolve around the Sun. 🌞 🧐 Why does it happen? Think of passing
