This stunning new Cassini image was captured on July 29, 2011, and shows a portion of Saturn’s rings along with several moons dotting the view. How many moons can you find, and can you name them?
See below for a color version of this image, put together by our own Jason Major!
Jason shares on his Flickr page the process of how he edited the image. As Jason says, it’s a moon flash mob!
See the Cassini Solstice Mission raw images page for a larger view.
