Tethys, one of Saturn's moons, is seen as if sliced by the planet's A and F rings. Tethys (660 miles, or 1,062 kilometers across), like the ring particles, is composed primarily of ice. The gap in the A ring through which Tethys is visible is the Keeler gap, which is kept clear by the small moon Daphnis (not visible here). This view looks toward the Saturn-facing hemisphere of Tethys. North on Tethys is up and rotated 43 degrees to the right. The image was taken in visible light with the NASA's Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on July 14, 2014.
