"I can see your house from here!"

In 2013, the Cassini spacecraft captured this wide-angle, overexposed view of Saturn and a chunk of its rings. That pale blue dot just below the rings? That’s Earth from approximately 898 million miles (1.4 billion kilometers) away.
This view looks toward the unilluminated side of the rings from about 20 degrees below the ring plane. Images taken using red, green and blue spectral filters were combined to create this natural color view. It was only the third time ever that Earth had been imaged from the outer solar system.
