July 19, 2013, the Cassini spacecraft slipped into Saturn's shadow and turned to image the planet, seven of its moons, its inner rings and Earth. With the sun's powerful and potentially damaging rays eclipsed by Saturn itself, Cassini's on-board cameras were able to take advantage of this unique viewing geometry. They acquired a panoramic mosaic of the Saturn system that allows scientists to see details in the rings and throughout the system as they are backlit by the sun.
