Anthe_Methone-PIA11102.jpg
Anthe_Methone-PIA11102.jpgSmall - but VERY bright - Companions: Anthe and Methone55 visiteCaption NASA:"Recent Cassini images show Arcs of Material co-orbiting with the Saturnian moons Anthe and Methone.
Arrows indicate the positions of Anthe, at top left, and Methone, at bottom right. Micrometeoroid impacts on the moons are the likely source of the Arc Material.
Cassini imaging scientists believe the process that maintains the Anthe and Methone arcs is similar to that which maintains the Arc in the G-Ring (see PIA08327). The general brightness of the image (along with the faint horizontal banding pattern) results from the long exposure time of 15" required to capture the extremely faint ring arc and the processing needed to enhance its visibility (which also enhances the digital background noise in the image).
The image was digitally processed to remove most of the background noise. This view looks toward the un-illuminated side of the Rings from about 2° above the Ring-Plane.

The image was taken in visible light with the Cassini Spacecraft narrow-angle camera on Oct. 29, 2007. The view was acquired at a distance of approx. 2,3 MKM (about 1,4 MMs) from Anthe and 2,2 MKM (approx. 1,4 MMs) from Methone.
Image scale is roughly 14 Km (about 9 miles) per pixel on Anthe and 13 Km (approx. 8 miles) on Methone".
