Tumbling Hyperion (Natural Colors; credits: Lunexit)

Caption NASA:"The Cassini Spacecraft peers at the pitted Surface of the small and irregularly-shaped moon Hyperion.
See PIA09728 to learn how these pits are created on low-density Hyperion (about 270 Km, or approx. 168 miles across). To watch a movie of this "tumbling moon", see PIA07683.
Scale in the original image was 9 Km (approx. 5,5 miles) per pixel. The image has been magnified by a factor of three and contrast-enhanced to aid visibility.

The image was taken in Visible Light with the Cassini Spacecraft narrow-angle camera on Sept. 5, 2009. The view was obtained at a distance of approx. 1,4 MKM (such as about 870.000 miles) from Hyperion and at a Phase Angle of 91°".
