For example, on 13 February that marvellous probe Cassini flew past Saturn's moon Mimas. Above you can see an image it took during the encounter. Mimas is a ball of ice about 200 km across and the probe was just 70 000 km from it when the image was taken. You can just see giant Saturn behind it. Fantastic!
