NASA. LARGE FORMAT. CASSINI INTERPLANETARY SPACE MISSION. Af - Lot 303
NASA. LARGE FORMAT. CASSINI INTERPLANETARY SPACE MISSION. After more than 13 years on Saturn and with its fate sealed, NASA's Cassini spacecraft bid farewell to the Saturnian system by firing the shutters of its wide-angle camera and capturing this last complete mosaic of Saturn and its rings, two days before the probe's dramatic plunge into the planet's atmosphere. During the observation, a total of 80 wide angle images were acquired in a little more than two hours. This view is constructed from 42 of these wide-angle images, taken using red, green and blue spectral filters, combined and mosaicked to create a natural color view. Six of Saturn's moons - Enceladus, Epimetheus, Janus, Mimas, Pandora and Prometheus - appear faintly in this image. 2017. Vintage chromogenic print. Numbering on front. Label legend on back. 40.6 x 40.6CM with margins.
