![]() Caption:A color portrait of Saturn's moon Rhea was constructed from three Voyager 1 images taken on 11 November 1980 through violet, blue and orange filters. Range from the spacecraft to the moon was about 1.7 million kilometers (one million miles), giving a resolution of about 30 kilometers (20 miles) on Rhea's surface. The color has been exaggerated somewhat to bring out subtle color differences between brighter streaks and darker background (which is still about 50% reflective). Copyright: Credit:NASA |
![]() Caption:Special computer processing was used to enhance subtle color and brightness variations in this photo of Saturn's satellite, Rhea, taken by Voyager 1 on 12 November 1980, at a distance of 1.3 million kilometers (808,000 miles). Rhea's surface is composed mostly of ice, so is very reflective, and presents an almost uniformly white appearance. Copyright: Credit:NASA |
