  That would be Mimas, a moon of Saturn.  Generally referred to by
non-astronomers as the "Death Star Moon".  NASA's site (www.nasa.gov)
has links to some good pictures of it (I think they're actually at the
smithsonian) but they're UPSIDE DOWN!!!  That's what you get when you
give astronomical pictures to people who don't truly understand space
science.  The big dish obviously goes at the top!
