Summary

Description
English: Saturn eclipsing the sun, seen from behind from the Cassini orbiter. The color is exaggerated in this version. The image is a mosaic assembled from images taken by the Cassini spacecraft.

Individual rings seen include (in order, starting from most distant)

  • E ring
  • Pallene ring (visible very faintly in an arc just below Saturn)
  • G ring
  • Janus/Epimetheus ring (faint)
  • F ring (narrow brightest feature)
  • Main rings (A,B,C)
  • D ring (bluish, nearest Saturn)
Also of note is a distant view of the Earth, visible between the G ring and the brighter main rings to the left of Saturn, somewhat above center.
