Saturn - 29 January 2011

The Cassini's Division, a gap in the rings, is visible, as is a dark cloud belt across the disk. Just above the cloud belt is a lighter area, which is a storm that has been raging for weeks and is several times the size of the Earth. The dark area on the rings, to the left of the disk in this image, is the shadow of the planet's disk.
