This is a very interesting thing to visualize - thanks Erik. Depending on the particle size distribution, clumping and such, I wonder if we should be seeing some more transparent areas at smaller scales? Perhaps this would depend on having a more inclined angle of view and if the clumping is more visible in the A ring rather than the B ring.
