Answer to Question 1

Radiation striking ice produces dark organic compounds rich in carbon; it also vaporizes the bright ices that still dominate Saturn's newer rings.

Answer to Question 2

It allows us to detect interstellar matter in regions where there is no light, allowing us to see what is located at all points in the galaxy, not just in the bright regions lit by hot, young stars.
