And Then, There Was Light

A NASA spacecraft has revealed an unprecedented view of Saturn from space,
showing the entire gas giant backlit by the sun
with several of its moons and all but one of its rings,
as Earth, Venus and Mars all appear as pinpricks of light in the background.
The spectacular image, unveiled Tuesday (Nov. 12),
is actually a mosaic of 141 wide-angle images from NASA's Cassini spacecraft
taken in natural color, which mimics how human eyes might see the ringed planet.
Stretching 404,880 miles (651,591 kilometers) across, the panorama captures all
of Saturn's rings up to the ethereal E ring, the second outermost one.
The pictures that make up the mosaic were snapped on July 19, 2013 —
the same day that Cassini took advantage of a rare opportunity
to photograph Earth without interference from the sun,
which was totally eclipsed by Saturn at the time.
From its far-flung perch millions of miles away, Cassini captured
amazing portraits of Earth as a pale blue dot
as thousands of people on the ground waved in honor of the global picture day.
