The_Rings-PIA12512.jpgThe "E-Ring"60 visiteCaption NASA:"The Cassini Spacecraft takes a look at Saturn's diffuse E-Ring which is formed from icy material spewing out of the South Pole of the moon Enceladus (see PIA08921 to learn more about how Enceladus creates the E-Ring). The E-Ring is seen nearly edge-on from slightly above the Northern Side of Saturn's Ring-Plane.
The image was taken in Visible Light with the Cassini Spacecraft wide-angle camera on Oct. 23, 2009. The view was acquired at a distance of approx. 2,5 MKM (such as about 1,6 MMs) from Saturn.
Image scale is roughly 149 Km (approx. 92 miles) per pixel".MareKromium     (4 voti)

Rhea-PIA11638.jpgCraterland (Natural Colors; credits: Lunexit)59 visiteCaption NASA:"Craters imprinted upon other craters record the long history of impacts endured by Saturn's moon Rhea.
This view looks toward the Mid-Southern Latitudes of the Saturn-facing side of Rhea. North on Rhea is up.
The image was taken in Visible Light with the Cassini Spacecraft narrow-angle camera on Oct. 13, 2009. The view was obtained at a distance of approx. 45.000 Km (about 28.000 miles) from Rhea and at a Sun-Rhea-Spacecraft, or Phase, Angle of 105°.
Image scale is approx. 260 meters (about 860 feet) per pixel".MareKromium     (4 voti)

Tethys-N00143707_to_09.jpgTethys (Superdefinition; credits: Dr M. Faccin)57 visiteIl Cratere che ben si distingue in questa spettacolare immagine di Tethys (frame processato in Superdefinzione dal nostro eccezionale Marco Faccin) , è "Penelope": un notevole bacino da impatto che, mutatis mutandis, ci ricorda tantissimo il Cratere Odysseus (sempre su Tethys); il Cratere Herschel (noto anche come "L'Occhio di Mimas") ed il Cratere Stickney (un enorme bacino d'impatto che si trova sulla Luna Marziana "Phobos").MareKromium     (4 voti)
