The shadow of Saturn rings looks like a belt fastened around the planet equator in this image. Overexposure to bring out the ring details makes Saturn appear especially bright.

This set of global, color mosaics of Saturn moon Enceladus was produced from images taken by NASA Cassini spacecraft during its first ten years exploring the Saturn system.
Ver en NASA ↗This set of global, color mosaics of Saturn moon Dione taken by NASA Cassini spacecraft during its first ten years exploring the Saturn system; obvious feature on the maps is the difference in color and brightness between the two hemispheres.
Ver en NASA ↗NASA Cassini spacecraft images dark spokes on Saturn B ring. Spokes are radial markings on Saturn rings that continue to interest scientists, and they can be seen here stretching left to right across the image.
Ver en NASA ↗Saturn casts its shadow on the rings in this NASA Cassini spacecraft image that also shows how the rings reflect sunlight onto the dark side of the planet. Here Saturn appears dimly illuminated by this ringshine.
Ver en NASA ↗Ghostly spokes in Saturn B ring continue to put on a show for NASA Cassini spacecraft cameras in this recent image. The spokes, believed to be a seasonal phenomenon, are expected to disappear as Saturn nears its northern hemisphere summer.
Ver en NASA ↗Waves in the edges of the Keeler gap in Saturn A ring, created by the embedded moon Daphnis, show considerable complexity in this image taken as Saturn approached its August 2009 equinox.
Ver en NASA ↗NASA Cassini spacecraft catches Saturn moon Daphnis making waves and casting shadows from the narrow Keeler Gap of the planet A ring in this view taken around the time of Saturn August 2009 equinox.
Ver en NASA ↗NASA Cassini spacecraft captured this close view of Saturn moon Pandora during the spacecraft flyby on June 3, 2010. Pandora orbits beyond Saturn thin F ring.
Ver en NASA ↗Darkness sweeps over Iapetus as the Cassini spacecraft watches the shadow of Saturn B ring engulf the dichotomous moon. The image at left shows the unshaded moon, while at right, Iapetus sits in the shadow of the densest of Saturn rings
Ver en NASA ↗Saturn moon Tethys with its prominent Odysseus Crater silently slips behind Saturn largest moon Titan and then emerges on the other side in this image taken by NASA Cassini spacecraft.
Ver en NASA ↗This set of global, color mosaics of Saturn moon Mimas was produced from images taken by NASA Cassini spacecraft during its first ten years exploring the Saturn system.
Ver en NASA ↗The effects of the small moon Prometheus loom large on two of Saturn rings in this image taken by NASA Cassini spacecraft a short time before Saturn August 2009 equinox.
Ver en NASA ↗This image, taken by NASA Cassini spacecraft, shows A beautiful mini-jet appearing in the dynamic F ring of Saturn. Saturn A ring including the Keeler gap and just a hint of the Encke gap at the upper-right also appears.
Ver en NASA ↗The sharp outer boundary of Saturn B ring, which is the bright ring region seen to the right in this image, is maintained by a strong resonance with the moon Mimas. For every two orbits made by particles at this distance from Saturn
Ver en NASA ↗NASA Cassini spacecraft looks toward the limb of Saturn and, on the right of this image, views part of the rings through the planet atmosphere. Saturn atmosphere can distort the view of the rings from some angles.
Ver en NASA ↗This set of global, color mosaics of Saturn moon Rhea was produced from images taken by NASA Cassini spacecraft during its first ten years exploring the Saturn system.
Ver en NASA ↗The shadow of Saturn cuts across the rings as seen by NASA Cassini spacecraft. As the ring particles enter Saturn shadow, their temperature drops to even colder temperatures, only to warm back up again when they re-emerge into the sunlight.
Ver en NASA ↗NASA Cassini imaging scientists processed this view of Saturn moon Hyperion, taken during a close flyby on May 31, 2015. This flyby marks the mission final close approach to Saturn largest irregularly shaped moon.
Ver en NASA ↗Among the interplay of Saturn shadow and rings, Mimas, which appears in the lower-right corner of the image, orbits Saturn as a set of the ever-intriguing spokes appear in the B ring to the right of center in this image from NASA Cassini spacecraft.
Ver en NASA ↗NASA Cassini Orbiter sees Titan become obscured as it moves into eclipse by Saturn. Most of the light comes from refracted sunlight passing through the edge of Saturn atmosphere.
Ver en NASA ↗NASA Cassini spacecraft captures a crescent of Saturn moon Enceladus. Lit terrain seen here is in the area between the leading hemisphere and Saturn-facing side of Enceladus 504 kilometers, or 313 miles across. North on Enceladus is up.
Ver en NASA ↗This set of global, color mosaics of Saturn moon Iapetus was produced from images taken by NASA Cassini spacecraft during its first ten years exploring the Saturn system.
Ver en NASA ↗Saturn moon Prometheus casts a narrow shadow on the rings near the much larger shadow cast by the planet in this image taken by NASA Cassini spacecraft about five months after Saturn August 2009 equinox.
