Mimas, Dione and Rhea
|
Caption NASA originale:"A scene straight out of science fiction, this fantastic view shows, from left to right, Saturn's moon's Mimas, Dione and Rhea, on the far side of Saturn's nearly edge-on rings.
The trailing hemispheres of all three moons are sunlit here and wispy markings can be seen on the limbs of both Dione and Rhea. The image was taken in visible blue light with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on March 15, 2005, at a distance of approximately 2,4 mkm (approx. 1,5 MMs) from Saturn.
The image scale is 14 Km (approx. 9 miles) per pixel".
