Light and Dark Moons |Cassini's

Move Over Caravaggio: Cassini's Light and Dark Moons:
Tethys Raw Image -- Aug. 14, 2010NASA's Cassini spacecraft has returned Saturnian moon images
from its flyby late last week, revealing light and dark contrasts
worthy of chiaroscuro painters like Caravaggio.
The flyby on August 13 targeted the geyser moon Enceladus,
but also brought Cassini close to two other moons--Tethys and Dione.
