Original caption:" Two of Saturn's battered, icy companions hover here, above the Ring-Plane.
To get a sense of the three-dimensional nature of the scene, note that the wide band of visible Rings is in between the two moons in this view from the Cassini spacecraft.

Mimas (397 Km, or 247 miles across, at left) is outside the far side of the Rings while Dione (1.126 Km, or 700 miles across) is outside the Rings and closer to Cassini.

The view is from just beneath the Ring-Plane and the image was taken in visible light, with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on Dec. 18, 2005, at a distance of approx. 2,2 MKM (roughly 1,4 MMs) from Dione and 2,7 MKM (about 1,7 MMs) from Mimas. The image scale is 13 Km (about 8 miles) per pixel on Dione and 16 Km (about 10 miles) per pixel on Mimas".
