Closing-up on Dione
|
Caption originale:"This close-up of Dione's icy surface shows deeply shadowed craters near the Terminator, as well as a group of roughly linear faults above center.
The terrain shown here is on the moon's Leading Hemisphere. North on Dione is up and tilted 21° to the right.
The image was taken in visible green light with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on Dec. 24, 2005 at a distance of approximately 152.000 Km (about 94.000 miles) from Dione and at a phase angle of 109°. Resolution in the original image was about 904 mt (roughly 2.965 feet) per pixel. The image has been magnified by a factor of two and contrast-enhanced to aid visibility".
