"On February 16, 2005, the Cassini spacecraft marked a milestone: After orbiting Saturn for 7 months, Cassini had returned more detailed views of nearly all the major satellites of Saturn than the great Voyager had given us a quarter century ago. We now present to you Phoebe, Tethys, Dione, Iapetus, Mimas, Rhea, and Enceladus, the seven icy satellites so far met by Cassini, each one a distinctive world worthy of exploration." (PLANETARY REPORT) This article analyzes data from the Cassini spacecraft about 7 of Saturn's moons.
