Light and dark Surface Features of Senkyo
|
Caption NASA:"The Cassini Spacecraft peers through the hazy Atmosphere of Titan for a close view of light and dark Terrain on Saturn's largest moon.
This view is centered on Terrain at 28° South Lat. and 334° West Long. and shows a small part of the albedo feature named Senkyo on the Trailing Hemisphere of Titan.
The image was taken with the Cassini Spacecraft narrow-angle camera on July 9, 2009 using a spectral filter sensitive to wavelengths of Near-InfraRed Light centered at 938 nanometers. The view was obtained at a distance of approx. 251.000 Km (such as about 156.000 miles) from Titan and at a Sun-Titan-Spacecraft, or Phase, Angle of 27°.
Image scale is about 1 Km (3281 feet) per pixel".
