Best Views of Titan and Tethys
SUMMARY: Cassini's image team has released two new photographs taken by the spacecraft that show two of Saturn's moons in unprecedented detail: Titan and Tethys. The picture of fog enshrouded Titan is actually a mosaic of 9 individual images stitched together that were taken as Cassini approached. The photograph of Tethys is actually in natural colour, and shows how neutral the moon looks. Tethys has a density similar to water, so scientists believe the moon is mainly composed of water ice. Cassini will make a much closer approach to Tethys in September 2005.
