Titan as Seen Through 3 Different Filters

On May 15, 2013, Cassini’s camera system, the Imaging Science Subsystem (ISS), looked for clouds across Titan’s sub-Saturn hemisphere from 2.49 million kilometers (1.55 million miles) away.

The ISS took a number of images of Titan in different filters. Three of which were used for this composite image. This RGB false color composite of Titan is in 3 different filters: continuum filter (where methane is more transparent), methane band (where methane is strongly absorbing), and ultraviolet.

Neurons growing in a cell culture

These time lapse animations use phase contrast microscopy to show neural stem cells in a nutrient medium for 4 hours. They reveal the dynamic growth and recycling of dendrites and synapses as neurons establish relationships with each other. The social behavior of these cells creates the incredible properties of the mind and brain.
