Titan_and_Rhea-PIA12599.jpgTitanian Encounters...55 visiteCaption NASA:"The moon Rhea moves behind Saturn's largest moon, Titan, in this Mutual Event imaged by the Cassini Spacecraft.
Mutual Event sequences, in which one moon passes close to or in front of another, help scientists refine their understanding of the orbits of Saturn's moons. Part of Rhea's Southern Hemisphere is also visible here through the haze of Titan's Atmosphere.
Titan has been brightened by a factor of 1.5 relative to Rhea. This view looks toward the anti-Saturn side of Titan and the Trailing Hemisphere of Rhea.
The image was taken in Visible green Light with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on Nov. 27, 2009. The view was obtained at a distance of approx. 1,2 MKM (about 746.000 miles) from Titan and from about 2,3 MKM (approx. 1,4 MMs) from Rhea.
Image scale in the original image was roughly 14 Km (approx. 9 miles) per pixel on Titan and about 27 Km (approx. 17 miles) per pixel on Rhea. The image has been magnified by a factor of two and contrast-enhanced to aid visibility".MareKromiumApr 02, 2010

Titan-Regions-Adiri_Region-PIA12591.jpgAdiri Region (Absolute Natural Colors; credits: Dr Paolo C. Fienga - Lunexit Team)55 visiteCaption NASA:"The Cassini Spacecraft takes a look through the Atmosphere of Saturn's largest moon to spy light and dark in the area called Adiri.
This view looks toward the moon's anti-Saturn side and is centered on terrain at about 2° South Lat. and 218° West Long.
North on Titan is up and rotated 6° to the left.
The image was taken with the Cassini Spacecraft narrow-angle camera on Jan. 29, 2010 using a spectral filter sensitive to wavelengths of Near-InfraRed Light centered at 938 nanometers. The view was acquired at a distance of approx. 285.000 Km (about 177.000 miles) from Titan and at a Sun-Titan-Spacecraft, or Phase, Angle of 45°.
Image scale is roughly 2 Km (about 1,2 mile) per pixel".MareKromiumMar 24, 2010

Titan-Regions-Dichotomy_Boundary_Region-PIA12586.jpgThe "Dichotomy Boundary" on Titan (N-IR Light - Natural Colors; credits: Dr Paolo C. Fienga - Lunexit Team)55 visiteCaption NASA:"The Cassini Spacecraft records Titan's Seasonal Hemispheric Dichotomy, with the moon's northern half appearing slightly lighter than the southern half in this image.
This view looks toward the Trailing Hemisphere of Titan. North on Titan is up and rotated 12° to the right.
The image was taken with the Cassini Spacecraft narrow-angle camera on Feb. 16, 2010 using a spectral filter sensitive to wavelengths of Near-InfraRed Light centered at 889 nanometers. The view was obtained at a distance of approx. 1,1 MKM (such as about 684.000 miles) from Titan and at a Sun-Titan-Spacecraft, or Phase, Angle of 28°.
Image scale is roughly 7 Km (about 4,3 miles) per pixel".MareKromiumMar 10, 2010

Titan-Regions-Belet_Region-PIA12559.jpgBelet Region on Titan (Natural Colors; credits: Dr Paolo C. Fienga - Lunexit Team)55 visiteCaption NASA:"The Cassini Spacecraft looks toward the dark Region of Belet, on Saturn's largest moon, Titan.
This large Region on the moon has a low albedo, meaning it diffusely reflects little light. This view looks toward the area between the Trailing Hemisphere and the Anti-Saturn Side of Titan. North on Titan is up and rotated 8° to the left.
The image was taken with the Cassini Spacecraft wide-angle camera on Dec. 28, 2009 using a spectral filter sensitive to wavelengths of Near-InfraRed Light centered at 939 nanometers. The view was obtained at a distance of approx. 282.000 Km (such as about 175.000 miles) from Titan and at a Sun-Titan-Spacecraft, or Phase, Angle of 45°.
Image scale is roughly 17 Km (about 10 miles) per pixel".MareKromiumMar 04, 2010
