Summary

Description	English: This image shows four new propellers and was put together from images in the Planetary Data System, a web site which archives and distributes scientific data from NASA planetary missions. The largest propeller seen here is noted in the white dashed box, and it indicates the presence of a 150-meter (490-foot) moonlet. The size is inferred from the radial separation of the propeller wings. The propeller is seen in another image and is shown in the upper left box. The reappearance of the propellers clearly demonstrates the orbital motion of the propellers. The region enclosed in the red box is zoomed and shown in the top panel of PIA10080. Three additional propellers are noted with white dashed circles on the right. Very bright and round spots are artifacts. But some of the bright elongated and non-saturated streaks could be smaller propellers that are not resolved in the image.
