Several distinct craters on Saturn's moon Hyperion can be seen here, as well as a protruding feature, perhaps a mountain, near the centre. Hyperion is 266 kilometres (165 miles) across.



The image was taken in visible light with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on March 16, 2005, at a distance of approximately 1.8 million kilometres from Hyperion
