Mimas, Janus, Prometheus-PIA06529_modest.jpgMimas, Janus and Prometheus, from the darkside59 visiteCaption NASA originale: "Visible in this image are: Mimas (398 Km, or 247 miles across) brightest and above center; Janus (181 Km, or 112 miles across) second brightest at upper left; and Prometheus (102 Km, or 63 miles across) just above the main rings at upper left.
The normally bright B-Ring appears very dark from this vantage point. Regions with smaller concentrations of particles, such as the Cassini division (bright near center) transmit more sunlight and thus are brighter.
The image was taken in visible light with the Cassini spacecraft wide angle camera on Oct. 27, 2004, at a distance of 757.000 Km(470.000miles) from Saturn. The image scale is about 42 Km (26 miles) per pixel".

Mimas-PIA06642.jpgMimas, Dione and Rhea56 visiteCaption NASA originale:"A scene straight out of science fiction, this fantastic view shows, from left to right, Saturn's moon's Mimas, Dione and Rhea, on the far side of Saturn's nearly edge-on rings.
The trailing hemispheres of all three moons are sunlit here and wispy markings can be seen on the limbs of both Dione and Rhea. The image was taken in visible blue light with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on March 15, 2005, at a distance of approximately 2,4 mkm (approx. 1,5 MMs) from Saturn.
The image scale is 14 Km (approx. 9 miles) per pixel".

Saturn&C.-PIA07510.jpgA "string" of Moons...57 visiteCaptionn NASA originale:"A string of three of Saturn's icy moons encircles the planet in this Cassini image.
Visible here are: Mimas, on near lower right; Janus just below the F-Ring and Enceladus on the lower left; the scene has been brightened to increase the moons' visibility.
The image was taken in visible light with the Cassini spacecraft wide-angle camera on April 25, 2005, at a distance of approx. 2,4 MKM (about 1,5 MMs) from Saturn. The image scale is 141 Km (approx. 87 miles) per pixel".
