Description
English: On 10 August 1995 HST observed the second passage of the Earth through Saturn's ring plane in the 1995/96 series of triple crossings. This pair of 100 sec exposures was taken with the Wide Field and Planetary Camera (WFPC2) in planetary (high resolution) mode 2.5 hours prior to the Earth's passage through the ring plane. An 8922 A methane band filter was used to reduce the scattered light from the planet.
