Japetus-N00091779.jpgJapetus and some Stars57 visiteCaption NASA:N00091779.jpg was taken on September 09, 2007 and received on Earth September 09, 2007. The camera was pointing toward Japetus that, at the time, was approx. 268.558 Km away, and the image was taken using the CL1 and CL2 filters. This image has not been validated or calibrated".
Nota Lunexit: l'evidente sovraesposizione della falce illuminata di Giapeto ci induce a ritenere (ragionevolmente) che alcuni dei punti luminosi visibili nello spazio circostante la luna Saturniana non sìano i soliti image-artifacts, ma vere e proprie stelle (raramente visibili in frames che riprendono corpi molto luminosi - in questo caso, poi, oltre alla sovraesposizione, ci aiuta anche la bassissima albedo che caratterizza un'ampia porzione di Giapeto).MareKromium

Saturn-PIA09012.jpgIncoming Storm57 visiteCaption NASA:"A great vortex, ringed by bright clouds, rolls through the Southern Skies of Saturn in this Cassini spacecraft view.
The image was taken using a spectral filter sensitive to wavelengths of infrared light centered at 750 nanometers. The view was obtained with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on July 11, 2007 at a distance of approx. 2,8 MKM (such as about 1,8 MMs) from Saturn.
Image scale is roughly 17 Km (about 10 miles) per pixel".MareKromium

The_Rings-PIA08997.jpgOther "Brothers in the Night": Pan and Pandora58 visiteCaption NASA:"The Cassini spacecraft skims past Saturn's Ring-Plane at a low angle, spotting two ring moons on the far side.
Pan (26 Km, or about 16 miles across) sits within the Encke Gap right of center. Beyond the F-Ring hovers Pandora (84 Km, or approx. 52 miles across).
This view looks toward the unilluminated side of the Rings from less than 1° above the Ring-Plane.
The image was taken in visible light with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on June 14, 2007 at a distance of approx. 1,6 MKM (about 1 MMs) from Saturn. Image scale is roughly 10 Km (about 6 miles) per pixel".MareKromium
