Janus-PIA11469.jpgJanus' Polar Crater55 visiteCaption NASA:"A large crater on Saturn's tiny moon Janus is distinctly visible in this Cassini Spacecraft image. Lit terrain seen here is on the Leading Hemisphere of Janus (approx. 179 Km, or about 111 miles across). North on Janus is up and rotated 7° to the left.
The image was taken in Visible Light with the Cassini Spacecraft narrow-angle camera on March 5, 2009. The view was acquired at a distance of approx. 1,1 MKM (about 684.000 miles) from Janus and at a Sun-Janus-Spacecraft, or Phase, Angle of 53°. Resolution in the original image was roughly 6 Km (about 4 miles) per pixel.
The image has been magnified by a factor of two to aid visibility".MareKromium

The_Rings-PIA11470.jpgMorning Spokes (Natural Colors; credits: Lunar Explorer Italia)55 visiteCaption NASA:"Bright spokes emerge from behind the shadow of the Planet and into sunlight in this view from the Cassini Spacecraft.
Saturn's long shadow covers the left side of the image. This view looks toward the sunlit side of the Rings from about 22° below the Ring-Plane.
The image was taken in visible light with the Cassini Spacecraft wide-angle camera on Feb. 26, 2009. The view was acquired at a distance of approx. 821.000 Km (about 510.000 miles) from Saturn and at a Sun-Saturn-Spacecraft, or Phase, Angle of 150°.
Image scale is roughly 46 Km (about 29 miles) per pixel".MareKromium

PSP_002882_0940_RED_browse~0.jpgFresh Craters on the South Polar Layered Deposits (Natural Colors; credits: Lunar Explorer Italia)55 visiteThis image was taken in the Southern Spring, when the surface was completely covered by Carbon Dioxide frost. Therefore, most of the brightness variations in this scene are caused by topography.
The Polar Layered Deposits are broken into blocks by fractures in two directions. Neither set of fractures is parallel to the current scarp face, suggesting that they were not formed as the scarp was eroded, but instead are due to pre-existing weaknesses in the Polar Layered Deposits.
The (small?) craters that can be seen at about 23:00 - approx. in the central portion of the frame - appear to have formed at the same time by an impactor that broke up as it entered the Martian Atmosphere.
The presence of many craters such as these on the South Polar Layered Deposits indicates that they are not as young as the North Polar Layered Deposits, which have very few craters on them.MareKromium

Jus_Chasma-NTV-MO-20090422a.jpgJus Chasma at Night (False Colors; credits: Lunexit)55 visiteCaption NASA:"This is an InfraRed image of Jus Chasma taken at night. Bright surfaces are warmer than dark surfaces; the floor of the chasma is warmer than the plains at the top of the frame. Nighttime InfraRed images are extremely helpful in identifying bedrock outcrops, which stay warmer than dust covered surfaces. The landslide is also easy to identify in this image".

Tethys-PIA11476.jpgTethys (Natural Colors; credits: Lunar Explorer Italia)55 visiteCaption NASA:"The Terminator between shadow and light cuts across a large crater in the high Southern Latitudes of the moon Tethys.
Also visible near the Terminator on the left of the image is a portion of the Ithaca Chasma, a chasm that runs North-South for more than a 1000 Km (about 620 miles). This view looks toward the South Pole of Tethys, and the Pole lies on the Terminator between the crater and the chasm.
Lit Terrain seen here is mostly on the Trailing Hemisphere of Tethys.
The image was taken in Visible Light with the Cassini Spacecraft narrow-angle camera on Feb. 16, 2009. The view was acquired at a distance of approx. 873.000 Km (such as about 542.000 miles) from Tethys and at a Sun-Tethys-Spacecraft, or Phase, Angle of 96°.
Image scale is roughly 5 Km (a little more than 3 miles) per pixel".MareKromium
