Stock Photography of Saturn and its Rings #20029


#20029 Stock Photography of Saturn and its Rings by JVPD
Royalty-free NASA stock photo of a view of Saturn from NASA’s Earth-orbiting Hubble Space Telescope taken on March 22nd 2004. Camera exposures in four filters (blue, blue-green, green and red) were combined to form the Hubble image and render colors similar to what the eye would see through a telescope focused on Saturn. The subtle pastel colors of ammonia-methane clouds trace a variety of atmospheric dynamics. Saturn displays its familiar banded structure, with haze and clouds at various altitudes. Like Jupiter, all bands are parallel to Saturn’s equator. The magnificent rings, at nearly their maximum tilt toward Earth, show subtle hues which indicate the trace chemical differences in their icy composition.
