In the Night...
Caption NASA:"Graceful giant Saturn poses with a few of the small Worlds it holds close. From this viewpoint the Cassini Spacecraft can see across the entirety of the Planet's shadow on the Rings, to where the Ring-Plane emerges once again into Sunlight. 
Tethys shines large and bright near the bottom of the scene. Pandora sits outside the F-Ring, below center. Epimetheus is a speck on the far side of the Ring-Plane, immediately to the right of Saturn's limb. Most of the other bright specks near the Rings are background stars. 
This view looks toward the unilluminated side of the Rings from about 8° above the Ring-Plane. The image has been brightened to enhance the appearance of the small moons. 

The image was taken with the Cassini spacecraft wide-angle camera on June 2, 2007 using a spectral filter sensitive to wavelengths of infrared light centered at 918 nanometers. 
The view was obtained at a distance of approx. 2,2 MKM (such as about 1,4 MMs) from Saturn. 
Image scale is roughly 131 Km (about miles) per pixel".
Parole chiave: Saturn and Companions
