Titan: Layers of Haze PIA01533
Layers of haze covering Saturn's satellite Titan are seen in this image taken by Voyager 1 on Nov. 12, 1980 at a range of 22,000 km. The colours are false and are used to show details of the haze that covers Titan.

The upper level of the thick aerosol above the satellite's limb appears orange. The divisions in the haze occur at altitudes of 200, 375 and 500 km above the limb of the moon.
