Saturn and its rings completely fill the field of view of Cassinis narrow angle camera in this natural color image taken on March 27, 2004. This is the last single `eyeful of Saturn and its rings achievable with the narrow angle camera on approach to the planet. From now until orbit insertion, the rings will be larger than the cameras field of view. The image is a composite of three exposures in red, green, and blue, taken when the spacecraft was 47.7 million kilometers (29.7 million miles) from the planet. The image scale is 286 kilometers (178 miles) per pixel.
