Enjoy the View

Hey Space Placers!


Saturn, Tethys and Enceladus


Recognize the planet?????

It is the planet Saturn taken  by NASA's Cassini spacecraft from a vantage point that was even with the planet's ring system. The rings are the thin line that divides the planet in half. See the two small moons, one on each side of the planet? Tethys on the right and Enceladus on the left.....

See the full size image at the link below. Saturn is in the southwest as it gets dark.
