This is an approximate true color view of Saturn. This view allows us to see the planet through its own rings. Below the rings and to the lower right, shadows of the rings are cast upon the planet.

This composite is made of images that were taken by Cassini's camera system, the Imaging Science Subsystem (ISS) on February 22, 2016 and received on Earth February 24, 2016. The camera was pointing toward Saturn, and the images were taken using the blue, methane band, and continuum band filters.
