Titan and Tethys (Natural Colors; credits: NASA/JPL-Caltech/Space Science Institute)
Caption NASA:"Saturn's moon Tethys, with its stark white Icy Surface, peeps out from behind the larger, hazy, colorful Titan in this view of the two moons obtained by NASA's Cassini Spacecraft. Saturn's Rings lie between the two Celestial Bodies.
Ithaca Chasma, a long series of Scarps or Cliffs on Tethys, can be seen faintly running North-South.

This view looks toward the side of Titan that is facing away from Saturn and the side of Tethys that is facing Saturn. This view looks toward the Northern, sunlit side of the Rings from just above the Ring-Plane. Images taken using red, green and blue spectral filters were combined to create this Natural Color view. The images were acquired with the Cassini Spacecraft narrow-angle camera on May 21, 2011, at a distance of approx. 1,4 MMs (about 2,3 MKM) from Titan and approx. 2,4 MMs (such as about 3,8 MKM) from Tethys. Image scale is roughly 9 miles (approx. 14 Km) per pixel on Titan and roughly 18 miles (approx. 27 Km) per pixel on Tethys".
