Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Voyager 2 image (FDS 11446.21, raw NASA IMQ file - image and histogram cropped but otherwise uncalibrated and uncorrected), one 591-second exposure obtained through the clear filter of the wide angle camera, shows the left-hand side of the ring system with the highest sensitivity. Visible in this figure are the bright, narrow N53 and N63 rings, the diffuse N42 ring, and (faintly) the plateau outside of the N53 ring (with its slight brightening near 57,500 km).

This PNG version has been converted from the original NASA IMQ data with histogram and image cropped but otherwise uncorrected and unmodified.
