The
cratered surface Saturn's moon Mimas is seen in this image taken
by Voyager 1 on Nov. 12, 1980 from a range of 425,000 km.
Impact craters made by the infall of cosmic debris are shown; the
largest is more than 100 km in diameter and displays a prominent
central peak. The smaller craters are abundant and indicate an ancient
age for Mima's surface.
