CASSINI'S VOYAGE TO SATURN
'Hurricanes start when strong thunderstorms drift over warm oceans '
'Warm air from the storm and ocean surface combine to create low pressure at the surface '
'Trade winds blowing in opposite direction causes spinning '
'Air rises faster to fill the low pressure, drawing more warm sea air and sucking cooler air downwards '
'As storm moves over the ocean it picks up more air and more speed '
'Hurricanes are made up of an eye of calm winds and low pressure surrounded by a spinning vortex of high winds'
