Tectonic activity of oaks

This is a spectacular mosaic collected by NASA's Cassini probe on Saturn's Encinar moon. It is rare to find craters and depressions in the southern hemisphere of the Moon. On the contrary, as can be seen in the photograph, it is full of fractures, folds and summits, with a prominent geological or tectonic activity. Experts believe that there are more grains of sand in greenish blue areas than in white and gray areas.

The mosaic was formed from the 28 images collected by a camera of the Cassini probe and subsequently colored. On top stand out Ebony and Cufa Dorsae. However, the abyss of Labtayt Sulci to the north is the most outstanding image of the image. This ravine is 6 miles deep.
