In-Transit...

The murky orange disk of Saturn's moon Titan glides past -- a silent, floating sphere transiting Saturn.
Titan's photochemical smog completely obscures the surface in such natural color views. Its high-altitude hazes are visible against the disk of Saturn as they attenuate the light reflected by the Planet.
This view was acquired from less than 1° above Saturn's Ring-Plane.

Images taken using red, green and blue spectral filters were combined to create this natural color view. The images were obtained with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on Aug. 1, 2007, at a distance of approx. 2,4 MKM (such as about 1,5 MMs) from Titan. Image scale is roughly 15 Km (about 9 miles) per pixel.
