Just been browsing the Raw Images archive of the latest images of Dione and I found this item.
There are two more 'white-out' images on the database at the moment (see here and here). Does anyone have any idea what was being imaged/might have caused this? Here's hoping that nothing has happened to the camera. |

Here's hoping that nothing has happened to the camera.  It is in a set with images like this one. I think it an image of Dione in Saturnshine, only it missed and got the sunlit size, and therefore is overexposed. -------------------- |

Now, that's an icy moon! Most of these outer-planet moons with crusts made primarily of ice look more like rock to the untrained eye. They obviously have ground-up regoliths and such, and the whole thing gives the same impression as a rocky landscape. But this looks like ice! Gleaming, very pure ice. The impact and tectonic features look glassy, and as if things have fractured along plane lines (as they ought to in ice). This encounter is providing some very impressive images! -the other Doug -------------------- “The trouble ain't that there is too many fools, but that the lightning ain't distributed right.” -Mark Twain
