Add Image to Favorite List 2015-02-02 Epimetheus Cassini-Huygens
 ISS - Narrow Angle
 786x1019x1
Tiny Epimetheus is dwarfed by adjacent slivers of the A and F rings in this image from NASA's Cassini spacecraft.

 ISS - Narrow Angle
 1020x879x1
Much as its name implies, tiny Epimetheus (Greek for hindsight) was discovered in hindsight. It was only later that astronomers realized that Janus and Epithemeus were not the same object.

 ISS - Narrow Angle
 1020x905x1
Although Epimetheus appears to be lurking above the rings here, it's actually just an illusion resulting from the viewing angle of NASA's Cassini spacecraft. In reality, Epimetheus and the rings both orbit in Saturn's equatorial plane.

 ISS - Narrow Angle
 1020x1020x1
NASA's Cassini spacecraft captured this view of Saturn's moon Epimetheus (116 kilometers, or 72 miles across) during a moderately close flyby on Dec. 6, 2015. This is one of Cassini's highest resolution views of the small moon.

 ISS - Narrow Angle
 1020x1020x1
Epimetheus, seen here by NASA's Cassini spacecraft, with Saturn in the background, is lumpy and misshapen, thanks in part to its size and formation process. Bombardment over the eons has left this tiny moon's surface heavily pitted.

Add Image to Favorite List 2017-07-03 Epimetheus Cassini-Huygens
 ISS - Narrow Angle
 1020x1020x1
This zoomed-in view of Epimetheus, one of the highest resolution ever taken by NASA's Cassini spacecraft, shows a surface covered in craters, vivid reminders of the hazards of space.

Add Image to Favorite List 2017-09-06 S Rings Cassini-Huygens
 ISS - Narrow Angle
 1024x1024x1
This view from NASA's Cassini spacecraft shows a wave structure in Saturn's rings known as the Janus 2:1 spiral density wave.

 ISS - Wide Angle
 6000x2500x3
After more than 13 years at Saturn, and with its fate sealed, NASA's Cassini spacecraft bid farewell to the Saturnian system by firing the shutters of its wide-angle camera and capturing this last, full mosaic of Saturn and its rings.

A Farewell to Saturn

This graphic shows the ring moons inspected by NASA's Cassini spacecraft in super-close flybys. The rings and moons depicted are not to scale.
