Star occultation
This artists concept shows the view from Cassini during the star occultation that detected Mittens, the small object to the right of the star. As Cassini watched the star pass behind Saturns F ring (foreground), the star blinked out when Mittens blocked it, indicating it may be a solid moonlet

EDITORS COMMENTS
This image print titled "Star Occultation" offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the wonders of our universe. Created by Stocktrek Images, this artist's concept showcases the view from Cassini during a remarkable celestial event. In this stunning composition, we witness Saturn's majestic F ring occupying the foreground as it glows with an ethereal blue hue. The planet itself stands tall in the backdrop, its vibrant colors illuminated against the dark expanse of space. Two objects dominate our attention: a distant star and Mittens, a small object positioned to the right of it. During this extraordinary moment captured by Cassini, as the star gracefully passes behind Saturn's F ring, Mittens comes into play. Blocking out the star's luminous glow momentarily, Mittens reveals itself as a potential solid moonlet orbiting around Saturn. The digitally generated illustration beautifully portrays this phenomenon that astronomers refer to as occultation - when one celestial body obscures another from view. It serves as a reminder of how vast and mysterious our universe truly is. With no people present in this scene, we are left to marvel at these cosmic interactions unfolding far beyond our reach. This awe-inspiring print invites us to contemplate both known and unknown aspects of space exploration while appreciating its artistic rendition by Stocktrek Images.
