MDA4628859: The Promenade planted on the Viaduc des Arts, Paris 12th arrondissement. In 1990, the former viaduct of Paris was renovated by Patrick Berger. Built in 1859, it connected the Bastille by rail to Vincennes. The construction of Opera Bastille will lead to the reabilitation of the viaduct, built by the Paris City Hall. The planted promenade was designed by Philippe Mathieux. / Bridgeman Images

PIX4625173: Saturn seen by the Cassini probe - Saturn seen by Cassini - Saturn seen by the Cassini probe on 22 August 2008 at a distance of 1.2 million km from the planet. The Cassini spacecraft looks toward the sunlit face of Saturn's rings, whose shadows continue to slide southward on the planet toward their temporary disappearance during equinox in August 2009. This view looks toward the sunlit side of the rings from about 3 degrees below the ringplane. Images taken using red, green and blue spectral filters were combined to create this natural color view. The images were acquired with the Cassini spacecraft wide - angle camera on Aug. 22, 2008 at a distance of approximately 1.2 million kilometers (728,000 miles) from Saturn. Image scale is 66 kilometers (41 miles) per pixel / Bridgeman Images

PIX4625336: Titan, Saturn satellite seen by Cassini: Visible and infrared composite image of Titan taken by the Cassini probe on September 12, 2013. View of methane and ethane lakes. - This false-color mosaic, made from infrared data collected by Nasa's Cassini spacecraft, reveals the differences in the composition of surface materials around hydrocarbon lakes at Titan, Saturn's largest moon. Titan is the only other place in the solar system that we know has stable liquid on its surface, though its lakes are made of liquid ethane and methane rather than liquid water. While there is one large lake and a few smaller ones near Titan's south pole, almost all of Titan's lakes appear near the moon's north pole - Scientists mapped near-infrared colors onto the visible color spectrum. Red in this image was assigned a wavelength of 5 microns (10 times longer than visible light), green 2.0 microns (four times longer than visible light), and blue 1.3 microns (2.6 times longer than visible light) - The orange areas are thought to be evaporite - the Titan equivalent of salt flats on Earth. The evaporated material is thought to be organic chemicals originally from Titan's haze particles that once dissolved in liquid methane. They appear orange in this image against the greenish backdrop of Titan's typical bedrock of water ice - In this mosaic, Kraken Mare, which is Titan's largest sea and covers about the same area as Earth's Caspian Sea and Lake Superior combined, can be seen spreading out with many tendrils on the upper right,. The big dark zone up and left of Kraken is Ligeia Mare, the second largest sea. Below Ligeia, shaped similar to a sports fan's foam finger that points just up from left, is Punga Mare, the third largest Titan Sea. Numerous other smaller lakes dot the area. Titan's north pole is located in the geographic location just above the end of the “” finger”” of Punga Mare. The data shown here were obtained by Cassini's visual and infrared mapping spectrometer during / Bridgeman Images

PIX4625407: Japet, satellite of Saturn, seen by Cassini - Crescent of Iapetus seen by Cassini spacecraft. - Mosaic in fake colors of Japet, a satellite of 1436 kilometers in diameter, taken by the Cassini probe on 10 September 2007 has a distance of 83 000 km from the satellite. Iapetus, 1,468 kilometers (912 miles) across, seen here in false color, is unique in its dramatic variation in brightness between the northern polar region and the middle and low latitudes. Equally prominent is the moon's equatorial ridge of towering mountains. The profile of the ridge against the darkness of space reveals that it is topped by a cratered plateau approximately 15 kilometers (9 miles) wide. Further west, the profile of the ridge changes from a long plateau to discrete peaks. The mosaic consists of four image footprints across the surface of Iapetus and has a resolution of 489 meters (0.3 miles) per pixel. The color seen in this view represents an expansion of the wavelength region of the electromagnetic spectrum visible to human eyes. The intense reddish - brown hue of the dark material is far less pronounced in true color images. The use of enhanced color makes the reddish character of the dark material more visible than it would be to the naked eye. In addition, the scene has been brightened to improve the visibility of surface features. This view was acquired with the Cassini spacecraft narrow - angle camera on Sept. 10, 2007, at a distance of about 83,000 kilometers (51,600 miles) from Iapetus / Bridgeman Images

PIX4625563: Mimas, satellite of Saturn, seen by the Cassini probe on 13/02/2010 - Saturn's moon Mimas seen by Cassini spacecraft - February 13 2010 - The Mimas satellite seen in false colours by the Cassini probe on 13 February 2010 has a distance of 16,000 km from the satellite. Color differences reveal differences in terrain nature. Mimas is about 400 km in diameter. At the right centre is the large impact crater Herschel, 130 km wide. Subtle color differences on Saturn's moon Mimas are apparent in this false - color view of Herschel Crater captured by Nasa's Cassini spacecraft during its closest - ever flyby of that moon. The image shows terrain - dependent color variations, particularly the contrast between the bluish materials in and around Herschel Crater (130 kilometers, or 80 miles, wide) and the greenish cast on older, more heavily cratered terrain elsewhere. The origin of the color differences is not yet understood, but may be caused by subtle differences in the surface composition between the two terrains. Herschel Crater covers most of the bottom of this image. To create this false - color view, ultraviolet, green and infrared images were combined into a single picture that exaggerates the color differences of terrain on the moon. These data were combined with a high - resolution image taken in visible light to provide the high - resolution information from the clear - filter image and the color information from the ultraviolet, green and infrared filter images. The natural color of Mimas visible to the human eye may be a uniform gray or yellow color, but this mosaic has been contrast - enhanced and shows differences at other wavelengths of light. During its closest - ever flyby on Feb. 13, 2010, Cassini came within about 9,500 kilometers (5,900 miles) of Mimas. This view looks toward the northern part of the hemisphere of Mimas that leads in the moon's orbit around Saturn. Mimas is 396 kilometers (246 miles) across. North on Mimas is up / Bridgeman Images
