The white spot moves counterclockwise around the brown spot and breaks up . A part of the white spot is absorbed by the brown spot.
Cassini is a cooperative mission of NASA, the European Space Agency and the Italian Space Agency. JPL, a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, manages Cassini for NASA's Office of Space Science, Washington, D.C.
