Caption NASA:"Myriad vortices churn through Saturn's high Northern Latitudes while Dione's shadow drifts across the gas giant's face.
This view looks toward the unilluminated side of the Rings from about 43 above the Ring-Plane.
The image was taken with the Cassini Spacecraft wide-angle camera on May 7, 2008 using a spectral filter sensitive to wavelengths of infrared light centered at 752 nanometers.
The view was obtained at a distance of approx. 1,2 MKM (about 760.000 miles) from Saturn. Image scale is roughly 69 Km (about 43 miles) per pixel".
