Hyperion from 1,7 MKM
|
Caption NASA originale:"The rugged surface of Saturn's irregular (and "tumbling") moon Hyperion is revealed in this Cassini image. Hyperion is 266 Km (approx. 165 miles) across.
The image was taken in visible light with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on Feb. 23, 2005, at a distance of approx. 1,7 MKM (such as approx. 1 MMs) from Hyperion and at a Sun-Hyperion-spacecraft, or phase, angle of 42°. Resolution in the original image was 10 Km (approx. 6 miles) per pixel. The image has been contrast-enhanced and magnified by a factor of 3 to aid visibility".
