Rhea

Interesting facts
  • Like Earth’s Moon, and like many of Saturn’s other moons, Rhea is tidally locked to Saturn (meaning the same hemisphere always faces Saturn).
  • Another way that Rhea resembles many of Saturn’s other moons is that its leading hemisphere has a different color than its trailing hemisphere.

You can view these links to learn more about Rhea and the other moons of Saturn:

The Rhea image on this page (with Titan behind) was taken in 2011 by the Cassini probe, and is courtesy of NASA/JPL-Caltech/Space Science Institute.
