Dione seems so lonely and insignificant against the Saturnine background; and the ring under Dione appears to underline this small moon, even though Dione is 1118 km across. This is a very stark though beautiful view.

As soon as I work out the bugs in my hyperdrive I think I'll spend an afternoon there taking in the view. :wink:
