Turbulence in one of Saturn

If anybody can tell me which moon and ring this is, I'll be glad to credit you with some internet points for it.


Day side of Saturn, raw image data. Ring shadows prominent. Cassini probe photograph.


Saturn's rings from cassini. just the rings this time.


One of Saturns rings edge-on

That's just gotta be Rhea.

Probably a different moon. Still Cassini.

nadir says this is probably Dione. Could be Rhea. She's trawling the Cassini raw image data looking for wherever I got these because she's kind of awesome that way.

I really should have noted what moons these were.


Two of Saturns moons, the rings visible in background. Raw image actual photograph of a transit.

I'm proud of finding this one. I'm less proud that I didn't think to write down what moons these are.

Edit: nadir found them. N00039923, Tethys and Dione
