The Cassini probe, the one that dropped the parachuted probe onto Titan, continues to circle Saturn, and to send back consistently breathtaking photos of this most beautiful planetary system. This shot, taken in September, shows three of Saturns moons, Dione, Tethys, and Pandora, against the background of the rings.
