Atlas and others-PIA06522_modest.jpgSaturn's Rings + Atlas, Prometheus and Janus75 visiteCaption NASA originale: "Saturn hosts its own miniature solar system with an entourage of more than 30 moons. This image shows Saturn's "A" and "F" Rings, along with 3 of the moons that orbit close to them. From innermost to outermost, tiny Atlas (32 Km across) orbits just outside of the bright "A-Ring" and is seen above center in this view. Prometheus (102 Km across) is visible near lower right. Prometheus and its smaller cohort, Pandora, shepherd the thin, knotted F-Ring. Janus (181 Km across) can be seen near lower left. Janus shares its orbit with the moon Epimetheus. Density waves due to Janus cause some of the bright bands seen in the A-Ring in this image. Prometheus and Atlas also produce waves in the rings, but their wave regions are too narrow to be seen here. The planet's shadow stretches all the way across the main rings in this view. The shadow has an oval shape now but over the next few years it will become more rectangular as the planet orbits the Sun and the angle Sunlight-Rings decreases".

Dione&Co.-PIA07628.jpgDione, Tethys and Pandora56 visiteOriginal caption:"This excellent grouping of 3 moons - Dione, Tethys and Pandora - near the Rings, provides a sampling of the diversity of worlds that exists in Saturn's Realm. A 330-Km-wide (about 205 miles) impact basin can be seen near the bottom right on Dione (at left). Ithaca Chasma and the Region imaged during the Cassini spacecraft¿s Sept. 24, 2005, flyby can be seen on Tethys (middle). Little Pandora makes a good showing here as well, displaying a hint of surface detail. Tethys is on the far side of the Rings in this view; Dione and Pandora are much nearer to the Cassini spacecraft.
Rememeber that Dione is approx. 1.126 Km (about 700 miles) across. Tethys is approx. 1.071 Km (about 665 miles) across and Pandora is 84 Km (roughly 52 miles) across.
This image was taken in visible blue light with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on Sept. 22, 2005, at a distance of approx. 1,2 MKM (about 800.000 miles) from Saturn. The image scale is about 5 Km (approx. 3 miles) per pixel on Dione and Pandora and 9 kilometers (6 miles) per pixel on Tethys".

Pandora-N00028964~0.jpgPandora: the "Prisoner" and yet the "Guardian" of the Rings55 visiteUn frame molto suggestivo per un'altra "luna pastore" - Pandora - che in questa immagine, a causa della particolare prospettiva, sembra essere stata "ingabbiata" dagli Anelli. In realtà - e da un punto di vista squisitamente fisico - semmai è vero il contrario: è Pandora che concorre nel "modellare" e "mantenere in equilibrio" e, dunque, nell'"imprigionare", in una serie coordinata di abbracci gravitazionali, i detriti che formano gli Anelli del Gigante!

Pandora-N00039277.jpgPandora, from about 52.000 Km53 visiteOriginal NASA caption:"N00039277.jpg was taken on September 05, 2005 and received on Earth September 06, 2005. The camera was pointing toward PANDORA at approximately 51.749 Km away".

Pandora-N00125271.jpgIn the Space of Saturn...54 visiteLa rubricazione NASA di questo frame riportava solo la dicitura "Sky". A noi, invece, sembra di vedere la piccola luna Pandora, in alto a Dx (la riconosciamo sia a causa della sua forma "a fuso", sia in ragione del cratere che si trova proprio sulla sua punta - ivi: Polo Nord, rispetto all'Osservatore).
Certo, potremmo anche sbagliarci, però...MareKromium
