This Saturn System HD DLC (addon) contains high-resolution textures for Saturn and its major satellites - Mimas, Enceladus, Tethys, Dione, Rhea, Titan, Hyperion and Iapetus. It improves the level of detail of these objects compared to the default SpaceEngine installation, and replaces their default low-quality JPEG textures with high-quality PNG ones.
