Saturn's limb (enhanced - and yet natural - colors)
Original caption:"Twice as far from the Sun as Jupiter, Saturn's colder temperatures mean that clouds form lower in its atmosphere. As a result, the visible cloud patterns - so striking on Jupiter - occur deeper inside Saturn, reducing their visibility in natural color views. 
This enhanced-color view uses exaggerated contrast and intensity in order to make Saturn's cloud bands easy to see. 
The Latitude seen at the image center is approximately 60° South of the Equator. 

Images taken in blue (BL2), green and red (CB1) polarized spectral filters were combined to create this enhanced-color view. The images were taken with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on Dec. 7, 2005, at a distance of approximately 3,1 MKM (1,9 MMs) from Saturn. The image scale is about 36 Km (app.x 22 miles) per pixel".
Parole chiave: Saturn - Atmosphere - upper layers
