Using color ratios, I was able to extract the evidence of bands stretching across the equatorial region of Saturn's moon Rhea. . The top image is coloring using standard compositing with Ultraviolet, green, and infrared wavelengths.

Description
English: Using color ratios, I was able to extract the evidence of bands stretching across the equatorial region of Saturn's moon Rhea.

The top image is coloring using standard compositing with Ultraviolet, green, and infrared wavelengths. The middle image is using a ratio of green to infrared wavelengths. On the bottom is the ratio of infrared to ultraviolet wavelengths, inverted for contrast.

For more information into the equatorial banding of Rhea, see photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA13422
