Orion Molecular Complex Size:70x100 cm Cassini presents the best view

Cassini presents the best view yet of the south pole of Saturn's moon Tethys

The "breaks" in the brightness of Saturn's limb are due to the shadows of the rings on the globe of Saturn

which I was very anxious to capture

The other bright dots nearby are stars

The sun was covered by the moon

Orion Molecular Complex Size:70x100 cm Cassini presents the best viewThe Orion Molecular Cloud Complex is one of the most active and dense area of stellar formation visible on our sky. This region is full of star dust, ionized gas, reflection nebulae and dark nebulae. Red wave on this crop is Bernards Loop, in the middle of the image you can see the brightest nebula of our sky the Great Orion Nebula and a little over it you can find the Horse Head Nebula and 3 stars aligned in asterism known as Orion Belt. Excellent
