[Friday, August 5, 2005] On its recent close flyby of Mimas, the Cassini spacecraft found the Saturnian moon looking battered and bruised, with a surface that may be the most heavily cratered in the Saturn system.

[Tuesday, August 16, 2005] The observed persistence of storm activity in the region during the southern Titan summer has led scientists to speculate that the dark, footprint-shaped feature near the upper left could be a past or present reservoir for Titan's methane rains.

[Wednesday, August 17, 2005] Like the rest of Rhea's surface, the southern polar region of this Saturn moon has been extensively re-worked by cratering over the eons. This close-up shows that most sizeable craters have smaller, younger impact sites within them.

[Thursday, August 18, 2005] Data from the NASA/ESA/ASI Cassini spacecraft indicate that Saturn's majestic ring system has its own atmosphere - separate from that of the planet itself.

[Friday, August 19, 2005] On Aug. 22, the Cassini spacecraft will fly by Titan at approximately 3,669 kilometers (2,280 miles) above the moon's surface. The spacecraft is expected to return high-resolution images of Titan's high southern latitudes.

[Friday, August 19, 2005] From 34 degrees above Saturn's equatorial plane, Cassini gazed down at Saturn's moon Epimetheus. The region seen here includes territory farther north and east than that imaged in March 2005.

[Friday, August 19, 2005] This is Cassini's best look yet at Saturn's D ring. The narrow ringlet is named "D68" and is the innermost discrete feature in the ring. The image also clearly shows how the diffuse component of the D-ring tapers off as it approaches the planet.

[Monday, August 29, 2005] As Cassini approached Titan on Aug. 21, 2005, it captured this natural color view of the moon's orange, global smog. Titan's hazy atmosphere was frustrating to NASA Voyager scientists during the first tantalizing Titan flybys 25 years ago.

[Monday, August 29, 2005] Cassini turns its gaze toward Saturn's outer A ring to find the moon Pan coasting behind one of the thin ringlets which it shares with the Encke Gap. Pan is 26 kilometers (16 miles) across.

[Monday, August 29, 2005] As the closest-orbiting of Saturn's intermediate-sized moons, Mimas is occasionally captured against the planet's dim and shadowed northern latitudes. The moon is seen here next to the shadows cast by the dense B ring. Mimas is 397 km across.

[Monday, August 29, 2005] Cassini looks upward at the south polar region on Rhea during a recent distant encounter. Rhea's icy surface is so heavily saturated with impact craters that the moon's limb, or edge, has a rugged, bumpy appearance.

[Monday, August 29, 2005] This processed image from Cassini's flyby of Titan reveals mid-latitudes on the moon's Saturn-facing side. This region has been imaged previously by Cassini, although the recent approach has improved the moderate-resolution coverage of the area.

[Monday, August 29, 2005] Tethys displays its distinctive dark equatorial band here, along with two sizeable impact craters in the west. The larger crater to the north is Odysseus, which has a diameter that is a substantial fraction of the moon's width.

[Monday, August 29, 2005] Cassini stared directly at the planet to find Saturn's moon Pandora in the field of view. The F ring shepherd moon is gliding towards the right in this scene. The F ring is thinly visible just above the main rings. Pandora is 84 kilometers across.

[Tuesday, August 30, 2005] The Cassini spacecraft discovered the long, cracked features dubbed "tiger stripes" on Saturn's icy moon Enceladus are very young. They are between 10 and 1,000 years old.
