One of Saturn's moons can be seen just above the planet's rings over a portion as nightfall approaches, approximately 200,000 kilometers (100,000 miles) from Enceladus, 17 January, 2006.

The images were taken using the Cassini spacecraft wide-angle camera. Red, green and blue spectral filters were combined to create this natural color view. One pixel is 10 kilometers (6 miles).
