On Jan. 29, 2008, NASA's Cassini spacecraft examined the Maxwell Gap, the large, dark division at center, which is surrounded on either side by the broad, isolated and bright ring regions, or 'plateaus,' of Saturn's outer C ring.

 ISS - Narrow Angle
 1008x1008x1
A small and battered reminder of the solar system's violent youth, the ice moon Mimas hurtles around its gas giant parent, Saturn. This image was taken in visible light with NASA's Cassini spacecraft's narrow-angle camera on Jan. 20, 2006.

 ISS - Narrow Angle
 715x710x1
Although Epimetheus appears to be lurking above the rings here, it's actually just an illusion resulting from NASA's Cassini spacecraft viewing angle on July 26, 2015. In reality, Epimetheus and the rings both orbit in Saturn's equatorial plane.

These six narrow-angle color images were made from the first ever 'portrait' of the solar system taken by NASA's Voyager 1, which was more than 4 billion miles from Earth and about 32 degrees above the ecliptic.
