The murky orange disk of Saturn's moon Titan glides past a silent, floating sphere transiting Saturn. Titan's photochemical smog completely obscures the surface in such natural color views. Its high-altitude hazes are visible against the disk of Saturn as they attenuate the light reflected by the planet. Titan is 3200 miles across. The view was acquired from less than a degree above Saturn's ringplane. Images taken using red, green and blue spectral filters were combined to create this natural color view. The images were obtained with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on August 1, 2007, at a distance of approximately 1.5 million miles from Titan. Image scale is 9 miles per pixel.
