Caption NASA:"The Cassini Spacecraft charts a quartet of dark albedo features on the moon Titan. From upper left to lower right of the image are Fenzal, Aztlan, Aaru and Senkyo.
This view looks toward the Saturn-facing side of Titan; North is up and rotated 16° to the right.
The image was taken with the Cassini Spacecraft narrow-angle camera on June 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. 1,2 MKM (such as about 746.000 miles) from Titan and at a Sun-Titan-Spacecraft, or Phase, Angle of 26°.
Image scale is 7 kilometers (4 miles) per pixel".
