Telesto in false color This view of Telesto captured during Cassini's Rev 19 combines data captured through infrared, green, and ultraviolet filters to create a map of variation across the surface of the tiny moon (it is only 24 kilometers or 15 miles wide). The color variations could represent differences in composition, differences in grain size, or a combination of the two. NASA / JPL-Caltech / SSI
