Ken Bugul, Mariétou Mbaye Biléoma à l’Etat civil, est une figure majeure de la littérature africaine francophone et mondiale. Née en 1947 au Sénégal, elle est particulièrement connue pour sa trilogie autobiographique : Le Baobab Fou (1982), Cendres et Braises (1994) et Riwan ou le chemin de sable (1999) récompensé par le Grand Prix littéraire d’Afrique noire. Son œuvre est riche de huit autres fictions romanesques, publiées entre 2000 et 2022, qui ont retenu l’attention de la critique.

Roche Division Shadow Caster
The moon Prometheus casts a shadow on Saturn F ring near a streamer-channel it has created on the ring. The image was taken as the planet approached its August 2009 equinox.

Saturn and 4 Icy Moons in Natural Color
This approximate natural-color image shows Saturn, its rings, and four of its icy satellites. Three satellites (Tethys, Dione, and Rhea) are visible against the darkness of space, and another smaller satellite (Mimas) is visible against Saturn's cloud tops very near the left horizon and just below the rings.

Taking a Bite Out of Tethys
Dione steps in front of Tethys for a few minutes in an occultation, or mutual event. These events occur frequently for the Cassini spacecraft when it is orbiting close to the ringplane

A Stage for Shadows
Two kinds of dramatic shadows play across the face of Saturn in this view from NASA's Cassini spacecraft from Dec. 6, 2007. The planet's rings cast dark bands across the cloud tops in the northern hemisphere. Near the pole, an elongated shadow can be seen from Saturn's moon Tethys, which appears as a bri...

Dione Deception
At top of this image, Saturn moon Dione may appear closer to the spacecraft because it is larger than the moon Enceladus in the lower left. However, Enceladus was actually closer to the spacecraft in this image captured by NASA Cassini spacecraft.

In the Company of Dione
* Image Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/Space Science Institute
http://www.nasa.gov/
http://www.spacescience.org/index.phpExplanation:
That is not our Moon. It's Dione, and it's a moon of Saturn. The robotic Cassini spacecraft took the featured image during a flyby of Saturn's cratered Moon last month. Perhaps what makes this image so interesting, though, is the background. First, the large orb looming behind Dione is Saturn itself, faintly lit by sunlight first reflected from the rings. Next, the thin lines running diagonally across the image are the rings of Saturn themselves. The millions of icy rocks that compose Saturn's spectacular rings all orbit Saturn in the same plane, and so appear surprisingly thin when seen nearly edge-on. Front and center, Dione appears in crescent phase, partially lit by the Sun that is off to the lower left. A careful inspection of the ring plane should also locate the moon Enceladus on the upper right.https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap150708.html

http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/
http://www.esa.int/
http://www.nasa.gov/home/index.htmlExplanation:
What's happening in this strange juxtaposition of moon and planet? First and foremost, Saturn's moon Dione was captured here in a dramatic panorama by the robotic Cassini spacecraft currently orbiting the giant planet. The bright and cratered moon itself spans about 1100-km, with the large multi-ringed crater Evander visible on the lower right. Since the rings of Saturn are seen here nearly edge-on, they are directly visible only as a thin horizontal line that passes behind Dione. Arcing across the bottom of the image, however, are shadows of Saturn's rings, showing some of the rich texture that could not be seen directly. In the background, few cloud features are visible on Saturn. The featured image was taken during the last planned flyby of Dione by Cassini, as the spacecraft is scheduled to dive into Saturn's atmosphere during 2017.https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap150824.html

http://www.nasa.gov/home/index.htmlExplanation:
Orbiting in the plane of Saturn's rings, Dione and the other icy saturnian moons have a perpetual ringside view of the gorgeous gas giant planet. Of course, while passing through the ring plane the Cassini spacecraft also shares their stunning perspective. The rings themselves can be seen slicing across the bottom of this Cassini snapshot. Remarkably thin, the bright rings still cast arcing shadows across the planet's cloud tops. Pale Dione, in the foreground, is about 1,100 kilometers across and orbits over 300,000 kilometers from the visible outer edge of the A ring.https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap051021.html

Evander is located in the unmapped southern section of Dione in that USGS map. The map could have been extended towards both poles using low resolution images. This isn't the only large impact basin which escaped notice in Voyager images. I already mentioned Tethys in that respect. Tomorrow we will see another example... but I'm saving the best until last. #Saturn #Voyager #Dione
