Colorful Colossuses and Changing Hues by Lunar and Planetary Institute on Flickr.A trav&eacute;s de Flickr:
A giant of a moon appears before a giant of a planet undergoing seasonal changes in this natural color view of Titan and Saturn from NASA&amp;#8217;s Cassini spacecraft.
Titan, Saturn&amp;#8217;s largest moon, measures 3,200 miles, or 5,150 kilometers, across and is larger than the planet Mercury. Cassini scientists have been watching the moon&amp;#8217;s south pole since a vortex appeared in its atmosphere in 2012.
This view looks toward the northern, sunlit side of the rings from just above the ring plane. This mosaic combines six images &amp;#8212; two each of red, green and blue spectral filters &amp;#8212; to create this natural color view. The images were obtained with the Cassini spacecraft wide-angle camera on May 6, 2012, at a distance of approximately 483,000 miles (778,000 kilometers) from Titan. Image scale is 29 miles (46 kilometers) per pixel on Titan.
