Summary

Description	English: Four-frame animation of Cassini's discovery images of Saturn's moon Polydeuces, observed 3,366,200 km away at 58° solar illumination phase on 21 October 2004. These images were taken with Cassini's ISS wide-angle camera in 5.6-second exposures. The images are significantly contrast-enhanced to show Polydeuces; scattered light from Saturn's bright glare on the right and background stars are visible. The original image names for the frames shown in this animation are W1477086063, W1477086111, W1477086231, and W1477086351.
