This icy moon is the largest airless satellite orbiting Saturn. Quite similar to Dione, it is rocky and heavily cratered. What is particularly interesting about Rhea is that based on its low density only 1/3 of its mass, at its core, is thought to be rock. The rest is water ice. Also interesting is that the leading face, as it orbits, is more densely cratered than the trailing face. This suggests a period of melting and refreezing at some point in its history.
