Mars has two small, asteroid-sized moons named Phobos and Deimos. This frame from an animation shows the point of view of the rover, located near the equator of Mars, as these moons occasionally pass in front of, or transit, the disk of the sun.

Cassini came close to Saturn small moon Helene on Feb. 25, 2006, acquiring this high-resolution view. This object seems to be buried in its own crater debris, like another Saturnian moon, Telesto
Ver en NASA ↗NASA Cassini spacecraft snapped this image during the spacecraft closest flyby of Saturn moon Helene, on March 3, 2010. Helene is a Trojan moon of Dione, named for the Trojan asteroids that orbit ahead of and behind Jupiter.
Ver en NASA ↗NASA Cassini spacecraft looks toward the dark side of Titan as a circle of light is produced by sunlight scattering through the periphery of the atmosphere of Saturn largest moon. A detached, high-altitude global haze layer encircles the moon.
Ver en NASA ↗NASA Cassini spacecraft looks at Belet, a dark region on Saturn largest moon, Titan. The Cassini spacecraft looks at Belet, a dark region on Saturn largest moon, Titan.
Ver en NASA ↗At top of this image, Saturn moon Dione may appear closer to the spacecraft because it is larger than the moon Enceladus in the lower left. However, Enceladus was actually closer to the spacecraft in this image captured by NASA Cassini spacecraft.
Ver en NASA ↗The two-toned surface of Saturn moon Iapetus is demonstrated in the dark region of the moon visible on the top left and the bright crater in the lower right of this portrait captured by NASA Cassini spacecraft.
Ver en NASA ↗Terrain on Saturn moon Tethys, defined with craters, is shown in front of the hazy atmosphere of the larger moon Titan in this image from NASA Cassini spacecraft. This view looks toward the Saturn-facing sides of Titan and Tethys.
Ver en NASA ↗This color composite view combines violet, green, and infrared images of Jupiter intriguing moon, Europa, for a view of the moon in natural color left and in enhanced color designed to bring out subtle color differences in the surface right.
Ver en NASA ↗This mosaic, made from radar images obtained by NASA Cassini spacecraft, shows mountainous terrain on Saturn moon Titan in the moon northern hemisphere, north of the Aaru region.
Ver en NASA ↗Dione and Rhea pair up for an occultation, or mutual event, as seen by Cassini. While the lit portion of each moon is but a crescent, the dark side of Dione has begun to take a bite out of its distant sibling moon
Ver en NASA ↗This false-color view taken by NASA Cassini spacecraft is one of a panel of three images of Saturn moon Iapetus showing the boundary of the global color dichotomy on the hemisphere of this moon facing away from Saturn.
Ver en NASA ↗This image from a movie clip shows Phobos, the larger of the two moons of Mars, passing in front of the other Martian moon, Deimos, on Aug. 1, from the perspective of NASA Mars rover Curiosity.
Ver en NASA ↗This global map of Saturn moon Dione was created using images taken during flybys by NASA Cassini spacecraft. This global map of Saturn moon Dione was created using images taken during flybys by NASA Cassini spacecraft.
Ver en NASA ↗Crisp details on Dione contrast with the haziness of Titan in image from NASA Cassini spacecraft of a pair of Saturn moons. Smaller Dione is at the bottom of the image, and that moon wispy terrain is visible.
Ver en NASA ↗A propeller-shaped structure created by an unseen moon is brightly illuminated on the sunlit side of Saturn rings in this image obtained by NASA Cassini spacecraft. The moon, which is too small to be seen, is marked with a red arrow.
Ver en NASA ↗NASA Cassini spacecraft views the cratered surface of Saturn moon Tethys in front of the hazy orb of the planet largest moon, Titan. Tethys is much closer than Titan to Cassini.
Ver en NASA ↗Saturn rings cut across this view of the planet largest moon, Titan. Dark albedo features on Titan 5,150 kilometers, or 3,200 miles across and the moon north polar hood are visible in this image captured by NASA Cassini spacecraft.
Ver en NASA ↗These images compare surface features observed by NASA Cassini spacecraft at the Xanadu region on Saturn moon Titan left, and features observed by NASA Galileo spacecraft on Jupiter cratered moon Callisto right.
Ver en NASA ↗This view of a part of the Galileo Regio region on Jupiter moon Ganymede shows fine details of the dark terrain that makes up about half of the surface of the planet-sized moon.
Ver en NASA ↗This map shows a dramatically improved view of heat radiation from a warm fissure near the south pole of Saturn icy moon Enceladus. It was obtained by NASA Cassini spacecraft during its Nov. 21, 2009, flyby of that moon.
Ver en NASA ↗This artist concept of Jupiter moon Ganymede, the largest moon in the solar system, illustrates the club sandwich model of its interior oceans. Scientists suspect Ganymede has a massive ocean under an icy crust.
Ver en NASA ↗In this image taken by NASA Cassini spacecraft two light sources illuminate Saturn highly reflective moon Enceladus featuring bright rings and the small moon Pandora in the foreground.
Ver en NASA ↗Jets of water ice particles spew from Saturn moon Enceladus in this image obtained by NASA Cassini spacecraft on Aug. 13, 2010. A crescent of the moon appears dimly illuminated in front of the bright limb of Saturn.
