The C-Ring

Original caption:"The Cassini spacecraft looks close at Saturn to frame a view encompassing the entire C-Ring. In the dark region closer to the planet lies the much dimmer D-Ring. The bright B-Ring wraps around the left side of the scene, while Saturn's shadow darkens the Rings at bottom. For reference, Saturn’s Ring sequence from its surface outwards is "D", "C", "B", "A", "F", "G" then "E".

The image was taken in visible light with the Cassini spacecraft wide-angle camera on Sept. 4, 2005, at a distance of approx. 627.000 Km (390.000 miles) from Saturn. The image scale is 34 Km (about 21 miles) per pixel".
