A Closer Look at Daphnis
Jet Propulsion Laboratory
July 06, 2010

NASA's Cassini spacecraft has captured the closest images of Saturn's
moon Daphnis to date. In these raw images obtained on July 5, 2010, the
moon can be seen orbiting in a rift known as the Keeler Gap in one of
Saturn's rings.

The Cassini-Huygens mission is a cooperative project of NASA, the
European Space Agency and the Italian Space Agency. JPL, a division of
the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, manages the Cassini
mission for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Washington, D.C. JPL
designed, developed and assembled the Cassini orbiter.
