Junior Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 http://www.nasa.gov/content/two-moons-passing-in-the-night/#.UffSZ43CaSo The Saturn moons Mimas and Pandora remind us of how different they are when they appear together, as in this image taken by NASA's Cassini spacecraft. Pandora's small size means that it lacks sufficient gravity to pull itself into a round shape like its larger sibling, Mimas. Researchers believe that the elongated shape of Pandora (50 miles, or 81 kilometers across) may hold clues to how it and other moons near Saturn's rings formed. This view looks toward the anti-Saturn hemisphere of Mimas (246 miles, or 396 kilometers across). North on Mimas is up and rotated 28 degrees to the right. The image was taken in blue light with Cassini's narrow-angle camera on May 14, 2013. The view was acquired at a distance of approximately 690,000 miles (1.1 million kilometers) from Mimas. Image scale is 4 miles (7 kilometers) per pixel. Pandora was at a distance of 731,000 miles (1.2 million kilometers) when this image was taken. Image scale on Pandora is 4 miles (7 kilometers) per pixel. Quote Link to comment

knapplc Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 When they first flew Voyager past Mimas and saw that crater, one of the NASA scientists famously exclaimed, "Is that the engine!?!?" 1 Quote Link to comment
GM_Tood Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 This image of a pair of interacting galaxies (a rose made of galaxies) called Arp 273 was released to celebrate the 21st anniversary of the launch of the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope. The distorted shape of the larger of the two galaxies shows signs of tidal interactions with the smaller of the two. It is thought that the smaller galaxy has actually passed through the larger one.
