The wide-angle camera on NASA’s Cassini spacecraft captures Saturn’s rings and planet Earth and its moon in the same frame. Earth, which is 898 million miles away in this image, appears as a blue dot at center right; the moon can be seen as a fainter protrusion off its right side. An arrow indicates their location in this annotated version.

This raw, unprocessed image released by NASA shows Saturn’s tiny moon, Pan, and was taken by NASA’s Cassini spacecraft. The flyby had a close-approach distance of 24,572 kilometers (15,268 miles). The image is the closest images ever taken of Pan and will help to characterize its shape and geology.

For over a decade, Cassini has been sending us captivating images of Saturn, its mysterious rings, and its family of icy moons. After twenty years, Cassini is running out of fuel. It will end its mission on Sept. 15th, 2017, plunging into Saturn while fighting to keep its antenna pointed at Earth as it transmits its farewell. “In the skies of Saturn, the journey ends, as Cassini becomes part of the planet itself,” reads a description of the spacecraft’s planned termination on the Jet Propulsion Laboratory website.
