The APOD from the 27th of January shows Saturn's moon Titan occulting a small portion of the other moon Tyths. The image was taken from the Cassini orbiter which I wrote about in my quarter 2 project. Titan appears to be out of focus, but this is most likely caused by the hazey atmosphere. On a superficial level, the creator Odysseus on Tyths makes the gray moon look like the Death Star coming around the gas giant Yavin to destroy its forested moon.
