The Rings

Caption NASA originale:"This wide and sweeping view of the sunlit Rings of Saturn takes in the impressive variety in their structure -- from the clumpy and perennially intriguing F-Ring to the many waves, ringlets and gaps in the A and B Rings and the Cassini Division in between.
The image was taken in visible light with the Cassini spacecraft wide-angle camera on Sept. 9, 2006 at a distance of approx. 640.000 Km (about 397.000 miles) from Saturn. The view was acquired from about 10° below the Ring-Plane. Image scale on the sky at the distance of Saturn is approx. 35 Km (about 22 miles) per pixel".
