In the Shadow of Saturn
Credit: Cassini Imaging Team, SSI, JPL, ESA, NASAClick image for larger view. More info here.Explanation: In the shadow of Saturn, unexpected wonders appear. The robotic Cassini spacecraft now orbiting Saturn recently drifted in giant planet's shadow for about 12 hours and looked back toward the eclipsed Sun. Cassini saw a view unlike any other.
Far in the distance, visible on the image left just above the bright main rings, is the almost ignorable pale blue dot of Earth.
