Reappearing Rhea
This false-color view taken by NASA's Cassini spacecraft is one of a panel of three images of Saturn's moon Iapetus showing the boundary of the global 'color dichotomy' on the hemisphere of this moon facing away from Saturn.

Color Dichotomy on Iapetus
NASA's Cassini spacecraft examines the rough dark-light dichotomy of the terrain on Saturn's moon Iapetus. Lit terrain seen here is on the Saturn-facing side of Iapetus.

Changing Seasons on Titan
Saturn's moon Tethys casts a shadow on the planet's A ring alongside the larger shadow cast by the planet itself in this image taken as Saturn approached its August 2009 equinox.

Shadows Big and Small
The Cassini spacecraft looks toward Rhea's cratered, icy landscape with the dark line of Saturn's ringplane and the planet's murky atmosphere as a background. Rhea is Saturn's second-largest moon, at 1,528 kilometers (949 miles) across.

Icy Profile
Large regions of Saturn's night side are illuminated by the planet's gleaming rings. Except for a sliver of the sunlit crescent at left, this view shows a part of the planet lit almost entirely by ringshine.

Saturn by Ringshine
Saturn's shadow interrupts the planet's rings, leaving just thin slivers of the rings visible in this image, which shows a pair of the planet's small moons. Helene is in the center top of the image, Epimetheus is in the lower right.

Splinters of Rings
Orbiting near the plane of Saturn's rings, NASA's Cassini spacecraft looks across the span of the rings to spy the small moon Epimetheus. The brightest spoke is visible on the left of the image.

Epimetheus, Rings and Spokes
This image, which at first appears to show a serene scene, in fact reveals dramatic disturbances created in Saturn's A ring by its moon Daphnis as seen by NASA's Cassini spacecraft.

Daphnis' Disturbances
NASA's Cassini spacecraft captured Saturn's moon Prometheus, orbiting near the streamer-channels it has created in the thin F ring, casts a shadow on the A ring in this image taken a little more than a week after the planet's August 2009 equinox.

Saturnscape After Equinox
These two images, taken four years before Saturn’s August 2009 equinox by NASA's Cassini spacecraft, indicate the streaks in these images are likely evidence of impacts into the planet’s rings.
