Rings of Saturn. The full set of rings, imaged as Saturn eclipsed the Sun from the vantage of the Cassini orbiter, 1.2 million km (¾ million miles) distant, on 19 July 2013 (brightness is exaggerated). Earth appears as a dot at 4 o'clock, between the G and E rings.
18 de sept. de 2023 · Saturn’s rings can be divided into two categories: the dense rings, which include A, B, and C rings, and the tenuous rings, which include the D, E, and G rings.
14 de jun. de 2019 · We present close-range remote-sensing observations of the main rings from the Cassini spacecraft. We find detailed sculpting of the rings by embedded masses, and banded texture belts throughout the rings. Saturn-orbiting streams of material impact the F ring.
A bewildering diversity of structure permeates Saturn’s main rings (Figs. 1 through 3) , which include the A ring, separated from the massive B ring by the Cassini Division—itself a ring—inward through the C ring and the nearly transparent D ring.
12 de ago. de 2009 · Three simultaneous radio signals of 0.94, 3.6 and 13 centimeter wavelength (Ka-, X- and S-bands) were sent from the Cassini spacecraft through the rings to Earth. In this simulated image of Saturn's rings, color is used to present information about ring particle sizes in different regions based on the measured effects of three radio ...
