The_Rings-PIA12766.jpgClump or Impact in the F-Ring99 visiteCaption NASA:"A bright Clump of material within Saturn's tenuous F-Ring stands out near the center top of this Cassini Spacecraft image. This view looks toward the southern, unilluminated side of the Rings from about 1° below the Ring-Plane.
The image was taken in Visible Light with the Cassini Spacecraft narrow-angle camera on Oct. 16, 2010. The view was acquired at a distance of approx. 320.000 Km (about 199.000 miles) from the F-Ring. Image scale is roughly 2 Km (1,242 mile) per pixel".MareKromium

Rhea-PIA12746.jpgRhea's Terminator (Absolute Natural Colors; credits for the additional process. and color.: Dr Paolo C. Fienga - Lunexit Team)157 visiteCaption NASA:"The Cassini Spacecraft captured this High-Resolution view of the Cratered Surface of Saturn's moon Rhea as the Spacecraft flew by this Celestial Body on October 17, 2010.
This view is centered on highly Cratered Terrain located at approx. 60° North Lat. and 251° West Long.
The image was taken in Visible Light with the Cassini Spacecraft narrow-angle camera. The view was acquired at a distance of approx. 40.000 Km(such as about 25.000 miles) from Rhea and at a Sun-Rhea-Spacecraft, or Phase, Angle of 88°.
Image scale is roughly 238 meters (781 feet) per pixel".MareKromium

Dione-PIA12740-PCF-LXTT.jpgFlying over Dione's "Wisps" (Absolute Natural Colors; credits for the additional process. and color.: Dr Paolo C. Fienga - Lunexit Team)85 visiteCaption NASA:"The Cassini Spacecraft looks across the Surface of Saturn's moon Dione and details the so-called "Wispy" Terrain first chronicled by the Voyager probe.
This Fractured Terrain covers the Trailing Hemisphere of Dione (which is about 1123 Km, or approx. 698 miles across). This view is centered on Terrain at approx. 53° North Latitude and 209° West Longitude.
The image was taken in Visible Light with the Cassini Spacecraft narrow-angle camera on Oct. 17, 2010. The view was acquired at a distance of approx. 61.000 Km (about 38.000 miles) from Dione and at a Sun-Dione-Spacecraft, or Phase, Angle of 32°. Image scale is roughly 363 meters (1190 feet) per pixel".MareKromium

Prometheus~0.jpgThe "Rise" of Prometheus...65 visiteCaption NASA:"What is that dark streak below Prometheus? Although it may look like a shadow or a trail blazed by sweeping up material, computer simulations indicate that the dark streak is better understood as an empty path pulled away by the gravity of Saturn's small moon. The particles don't follow Prometheus so much as glide sideways past where Prometheus used to be. One dark Streamer is created during each pass of Prometheus through the F-Ring that it shepherds.
The Streamers were unpredicted and first discovered in 2004 on HR images taken by the Cassini Spacecraft orbiting Saturn.
Close inspection of the Surface of Prometheus itself in the above image shows interesting structure and craters.
The Cassini Spacecraft arrived at Saturn in 2004 and, as it continues to function well, is now expected to continue to send back data and images from the distant ringed world until 2017".MareKromium
