:)!!!!!PLEASE DOWNLOAD FOR BEST QUALITY AND DETAIL!!!!!:)

:D!!!!!PLEASE READ THE DESCRIPTION!!!!!:D

:)!!!!!PLEASE COMMENT AND GIVE YOUR OPPINIONS!!!!!:)


hello again fellow viewers! here i have recreated the saturnian system as viewed from Rhea(saturn's second largest moon).

from left to right:
-Iapetus(very dark moon to the far left of the image. i blew it up by about a factor of 2 to make it visible.)
-Dione(largest moon in the image to the left of saturn.)
-Enceladus(moon in front of saturn.)
-Tethys(moon to the right of saturn.)
-Titan(red moon to the far right of the image.)


-all distances are roughly scientifically accurate except for iapetus.
-iapetus and titan are behind saturn.
-saturn's axial tilt is also farely accurate.
-saturn's rings are supposed to be slightly thinner.
-the moons orbital planes are also farely accurate.
-saturn's rings are also farely accurate.


Oh! and for the first time ever, i added ring shadow to the planet!:) so comment and tell me how i did on them!:) i'll see if i can make a tutorial on how to do it, its pretty easy!:D

so comment and tell me how i did on the image! enjoy!:D

Nice!
I like the idea :) Very well done.
Where does the crater picture come from? Looks like an impact crater on Earth. Is that the one from Arizona?
The rings look very good that's cool :) Did you see the last full view of Saturn lightened from back on the website of NASA? It is a green picture, really fantastic, pretty sure you would like it!
Nice work, thanks
Antoine

the landscape is an image of meteor crater in arizona.
as for the back of saturn, i think i made it too bright.
but i do plan on redoing this image at a later date.:)

Yeah I thought it could be this one. It's a pity I missed it last year, I visited the region... We made it to Wupatki national park instead, and it was great!!
Yes I noticed that the back was a bit too bright but didn't wanted to annoy you with details.
Good work!
