This mosaic of three frames from the Huygens Descent Imager/ Spectral
Radiometer (DISR) instrument provides unprecedented detail of the high
ridge area including the flow down into a major river channel from
different sources.
The Descent Imager/Spectral Radiometer is one of two NASA instruments on
the probe.
The Cassini-Huygens mission is a cooperative project of NASA, the
European Space Agency and the Italian Space Agency. The Jet Propulsion
Laboratory, a division of the California Institute of Technology in
Pasadena, manages the Cassini-Huygens mission for NASA's Science Mission
Directorate, Washington, D.C. The Cassini orbiter and its two onboard
cameras were designed, developed and assembled at JPL. The Descent
Imager/Spectral team is based at the University of Arizona, Tucson, Ariz.
