Saturn, Cassini image
Saturn. Cassini spacecraft image of Saturn, its rings, and two of its moons Titan (upper right) and Tethys (bottom left). The rings, which consist of particles of nearly pure water ice, have become contaminated with meteoritic dust over time. It is this dust that causes differences in the rings colours. The Cassini-Huygens spacecraft was launched in 1997 to investigate Saturn, its rings and its moons. This image was taken at a distance of 1.3 million kilometres from Saturn on 30th January 2008

EDITORS COMMENTS
This breathtaking print captures the majestic beauty of Saturn, its iconic rings, and two of its enchanting moons - Titan and Tethys. Taken by the Cassini spacecraft on January 30th, 2008, from a distance of 1.3 million kilometers away from the planet, this image offers a mesmerizing glimpse into our solar system's celestial wonders. The intricate ring system surrounding Saturn is composed of particles made primarily of pure water ice. However, over time these pristine rings have been tainted by meteoritic dust that has settled upon them. It is this cosmic dust that creates variations in color throughout the rings, adding an ethereal quality to their appearance. Launched in 1997 with the purpose of exploring Saturn and its moons, Cassini-Huygens has provided us with invaluable insights into this distant world. This particular photograph showcases not only the grandeur of Saturn but also highlights Titan on the upper right and Tethys on the bottom left - both captivating moons orbiting around their planetary host. As we gaze at this awe-inspiring image captured by Science Photo Library's lens, we are reminded once again of humanity's insatiable curiosity about our universe. The exploration conducted by missions like Cassini-Huygens continues to expand our knowledge and deepen our understanding of astrophysics and planetary science in the twenty-first century.
