IMAGE number

Image title
Saturn by Voyager 2 - Rings in fake colors - Composition differences within Saturn's rings. Voyager 2 - Image in false colors made by the Voyager 2 probe on August 17, 1981 at a distance of 8.9 million km from the planet. This image has been reconstructed from 3 black and white photos taken through the UV, green and orange filters. The contrasts were exaggerated. The different colors correspond to differences in the chemical composition of the particles that make up the rings. Possible variations in chemical composition from one part of Saturn's ring system to another are visible in this Voyager 2 picture as subtle color variations that can be recorded with special computer - processing techniques. This highly enhanced color view was assembled from clear, orange and ultraviolet frames obtained Aug. 17 from a distance of 8.9 million kilometers (5.5 million miles). In addition to the previously known blue color of the C - ring and the Cassini Division, the picture shows additional color differences between the inner B - ring and outer region (where the spokes form) and between these and the A - ring
