Saturn's Moon Rhea Print
by solarviewsThis giant mosaic reveals Saturn's icy moon Rhea in her full, crater-scarred glory.
This giant mosaic reveals Saturn's icy moon Rhea in her full, crater-scarred glory.
The giant Tirawa impact basin is seen above and to the right of center.
Tirawa, and another basin to its southwest, are both covered in impact
craters, indicating they are quite ancient.
The bright, approximately 40-kilometer-wide (25-mile) ray crater seen in
many Cassini views of Rhea is located on the right side of this mosaic (at
12 degrees south latitude, 111 degrees west longitude).
There are few signs of tectonic activity in this view. However, the wispy
streaks on Rhea that were seen at lower resolution by NASA's Voyager and
Cassini spacecraft, were beyond the western (left) limb from this
perspective. In high-resolution Cassini flyby images of Dione, similar
features were identified as fractures caused by extensive tectonism.
Rhea is Saturn's second-largest moon, at 1,528 kilometers (949 miles)
across.
