IMAGE number
PIX4625121
Image title
Saturn seen by the Cassini probe on 9 - 05 - 2007 - Saturn in natural colors seen by Cassini spacecraft May 9 2007. - Saturn seen by the Cassini probe on 9 - 05 - 2007 at a distance of 1.1 million km from the planet. Mosaic of 45 images. Three satellites are visible in this image: Mimas (upper right), Janus (lower right) and Pandora (barely visible, near ring F, lower left). This natural color mosaic was acquired by the Cassini spacecraft as it soared 39 degrees above the unilluminated side of the rings. Little light makes its way through the rings to be scattered in Cassini's direction in this viewing geometry, making the rings appear somewhat dark compared to the reflective planet. Bright clouds play in the blue - gray skies of the north. The ring shadows continue to caress the planet as they slide farther south toward their momentary disappearance during equinox in 2009. The rings' reflected light illuminates the southern hemisphere on Saturn's night side. Three of Saturn's moons are visible in this image: Mimas (397 kilometers, or 247 miles across) at the 2 o'clock position, Janus (181 kilometers, or 113 miles across) at the 4 o'clock position and Pandora (84 kilometers, or 52 miles across) at the 8 o'clock position. Pandora is a faint speck just outside the narrow F ring. This mosaic was constructed from 45 wide - angle camera images (15 separate sets of red, green and blue images) taken over the course of about two hours, as Cassini scanned across the entire main ring system. The images in this view were obtained on May 9, 2007, at a distance of approximately 1.1 million kilometers (700,000 miles) from Saturn. Image scale is about 62 kilometers (39 miles) per pixel
