Closing-up on Dione
|
Caption originale:"This close-up of Dione's icy surface shows deeply shadowed craters near the Terminator, as well as a group of roughly linear faults above center.
The terrain shown here is on the moon's Leading Hemisphere. North on Dione is up and tilted 21 to the right.
The image was taken in visible green light with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on Dec. 24, 2005 at a distance of approximately 152.000 Km (about 94.000 miles) from Dione and at a phase angle of 109. Resolution in the original image was about 904 mt (roughly 2.965 feet) per pixel. The image has been magnified by a factor of two and contrast-enhanced to aid visibility".
