This is a never before seen 3D image Saturn's moon Telesto, which shares its orbital path with the much larger moon Tethys. Telesto is 24 kilometers (15 miles) across.

Telesto has a potato-like shape. Overall the surface appears to be fairly smooth with a number of craters present.

The image was taken with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on October 11, 2005, at a distance of approximately 16,234 kilometers from Telesto.

Use red and blue 3D glasses to see the shape of Telesto.
