Description


A view from Rhea Rhea [REE-a] is the largest airless satellite of Saturn. It was discovered in 1672 by Giovanni Cassini. Rhea is an icy body with a density of 1.33 gm/cm3. The low density indicates that it is composed of a rocky core taking up less than one-third of the moon's mass, with the rest composed of water-ice. Rhea is somewhat similar to Dione. They both have similar composition, albedo features, varied terrain and synchronous rotations. The temperature on Rhea is -174°C (-281°F) in direct sunlight and between -200°C and -220°C (-328°F and -364°F) in the shade. The information above was taken from Views of the Solar System and is copyrighted by Calvin J. Hamilton. The image was created in Bryce 6.1 and thanks again for taking the time to view a comment on my work. Cheers, David

Saturn has been described as the Jewel of the Solar System, and your image does justice to that designation. I love the snippet of factual information you've given, especially since the image itself is so beautifully (and accurately) rendered. Fantastic work!

A freezing and forbidding world indeed - you've captured the bleakness of a frozen world very well here!
