Dione's criss-crossing streaks

The image of Saturn's moon Dione was taken in visible light by the Cassini-Huygens narrow-angle camera on 27 October 2004, at a distance of about 1.2 million kilometrs from Dione.

Dione's diameter is 1118 kilometres. The image shows primarily the trailing hemisphere of Dione, which is the side opposite the moon's direction of motion in its orbit. The image has been rotated so that north is up. The image scale is 3.5 kilometres per pixel.
