Just another (one of the thousands that occur every year) "Mutual Event", in the Space of Saturn. Here, as recorded by NASA - Orbiter Cassini, the icy moon Dione is rapidly passing in front of the giant, foggy moon, Titan. The greenish-white dot visible near the left Limb of Titan is (in our opinion, as IPF) the evidence of the passage of a Cosmic Ray. This frame has been colorized in Natural Colors by (such as the colors that a perfect human eye would actually perceive if someone were onboard the NASA - Cassini Orbiter and then looked towards the Saturnian moons Dione and Titan), by using an original technique created - and, in time, dramatically improved - by the Lunar Explorer Italia Team. |
