Original NASA caption:"This new view on the right side shows clouds at an altitude where pressure is nearly 2 bars. (nota---->1 bar rappresenta l'unità di misura della pressione atmosferica terrestre esistente al livello del mare). These clouds are about 30 Km underneath the clouds usually observed on Saturn. This is distinctly different from the typical view of Saturn in reflected sunlight, shown on the left.
The left view is characterized by broad expanses of clouds near the 1-bar level, such as the white cloud seen circling the Equator, with little hint of the discrete cloud complexes lying underneath (...)".
