A false-color image of Saturn's moon Hyperion, captured by the Cassini spacecraft. The image reveals a sponge-like surface densely packed with craters, many containing an unknown dark material at their base. The variations in color likely indicate differing surface compositions. Hyperion's low density suggests the possibility of extensive internal caverns.
