English:

Saturn eclipsing the sun, seen from behind from the Cassini orbiter. The image is a composite assembled from images taken by the Cassini spacecraft on 15 September, 2006.
Individual rings seen include (in order, starting from most distant) * E ring * Pallene ring (visible very faintly in an arc just below Saturn) * G ring * Janus/Epimetheus ring (faint) * F ring (narrow brightest feature) * Main rings (A,B,C) * D ring (bluish, nearest Saturn)

At full resolution, the distant Earth is visible as a dot above the left extremity of the main set of rings. For a detailed description, see http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA08329 and http://saturn.jpl.nasa.gov/news/press-release-details.cfm?newsID=698. Template:Fr
