Titan & Epimetheus
|
Caption originale:"This poetic scene shows the giant, smog-enshrouded moon Titan behind Saturn's nearly edge-on Rings.
Much smaller Epimetheus (116 Km - or 72 miles - across) is just visible to the left of Titan (5.150 Km - or 3.200 - miles across).
The image was taken in visible light with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on March 9, 2006, at a distance of approx. 4,1 MKM (such as about 2,5 MMs) from Titan. The image scale is 25 Km (about 16 miles) per pixel on Titan. The brightness of Epimetheus was enhanced for visibility purposes".
