Saturn's ring plane crossing Explanation of image. One sees sun light transmitted through the rings and scattered by particles in the C ring, the Cassini division, the Encke gap, and beyond the dark A ring all the way to the F ring. Objects in orbit produce inclined streaks. The brightest of them have been identified as indicated.
Unlabelled marks indicate new objects.
Note the temporary disappearance of Epimetheus, in the shadow of the A ring.
